(Intro)

Dm     Dsus4     Dm             Dsus2
Golden rings and hair tied with ribbon
Dm    Dsus4       Dm          Dsus2
Early spring when winter's forgiven
Bb
Laughing past pleasures warm by the fire
       Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2
Come inside

Dm     Dsus4        Dm           Dsus2
Silver vase, take a drink flower petal
Dm        Dsus4      Dm             Dsus2
Whistling songs like steam from the kettle
Bb
Carry silence like driftwood that rides
       Dm           Dsus4        Dm   Dsus2
On the tide, on the tide, on the tide

Am                              G  F
Tall treasures, large as Alaska
                                        G  Am
There forever, never put out to pasture
Am
Then the night will fall
Am
Bringing peace to all
Am               Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2
Darkness there together

Dm         Dsus4     Dm            Dsus2
Soft light bells and tea, draw the curtain
Dm    Dsus4      Dm          Dsus2
China cups, some shatter for certain
Bb
Laughin past pleasures warm by the fire
       Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2
Come inside

Bb  Am  Dm  Em  Am  Gm  Dm

Am                              G  F
Tall treasures, large as Alaska
                                        G  Am
There forever, never put out to pasture
Am                            G  F
Red river runs here beside us
                                  G  Am
Grey morning will never divide us

Am
Then the night will fall
Am
Bringing peace to all
Am               Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2
Darkness there together

(repeat and fade)
