[Verse 1]
Dsus2
When winter's shadowy fingers
G6sus2
First pursue you down the street
Dsus2
And your boots no longer lie
G6sus2
About the cold around your feet
G6
Do you spare a thought for summer
E7
Whose passage is complete
Dsus2
Whose memories lie in ruins
G6sus2
And whose ruins lie in heat?
[Chorus]
G6 D/F Em7 Dsus2 G6sus2
When winter comes howling in
[Verse 2]
Dsus2
When the wind is singing strangely
G6sus2
Blowing music through your head
Dsus2
And your rain-splattered windows
G6sus2
Make you decide to stay in bed
G6 D/F
Do you spare a thought for the homeless tramp
Em7
Who wishes she was dead
Dsus2
Or pull up your bedclothes higher
G6sus2
Dream of summertime instead?
[Chorus]
G6 D/F Em7 Dsus2 G6sus2

When winter comes howling in
[Verse 3]
Dsus2
The creeping cold has fingers
G6sus2
That caress without permission
Dsus2
And mystic crystal snowdrops
G6sus2
Only aggravate the condition
G6
Do you spare one thought for the traveler
E7
With no secure position
Dsus2
Who's turned and spurned by village and town
G6sus2
At the magistrate's decision?
[Chorus]
G6 D/F Em7 Dsus2 G6sus2
When winter comes howling in
[Verse 4]
Dsus2
When the turkey is in the oven
G6sus2
And the Christmas presents are bought
Dsus2
And Santa's in his module
G6sus2
He's an American astronaut
G6 D/F
Do you spare one thought for Jesus
Em7
Who had nothing but his thoughts
Dsus2
Who got busted just for talking
G6sus2
And befriending the wrong sorts?
[Outro]
G6 D/F Em7 Dsus2
When winter comes howling in
G6 D/F Em7
When winter
G6 D/F Em7
When winter comes
Dsus2 G6sus2
Comes howling in
Dsus2 G6sus2 Dsus2
