Winter Prayers

	  		

Verse 1: 

          Am              Dm    (Dsus D7) 
When it's cold and you're bored 
     G                          Em 
From counting the small cars on 94 
         Am                Dm   (Dsus D7) 
When you dream you're back home 
         G                           Em 
With the lakes, I don't trust you to walk alone 
       Am             Dm   (Dsus D7) 
Hollow trees, talk of hand 
        G                          Em 
All the neckties are toasting with empty cans 
        Am             Dm   (Dsus D7) 
And you know why she's gone 
         G                    Em 
Like the clothes in the river drifting on 


Dm         G             C 
Slide down south because once in awhile you're covered in sleaze 
            Dm            G       C   E 
You're like   smoke falls out her red brow 



Interlude: Am  Dm (Dsus  D7)  G  Em (2x) 


Verse 2: use verse 1 chords 
Well she left you the hose 
The tracks in the backyards, December's snow 
But those sad souvenirs 
They end at the fenceline and disappear 
Why'd you follow her there? 
The walk is a deaf ear, the winter prayers 
There's no night, there's no day 
With only hope in your pocket and hell to pay 



 
Slide it down south, when once in awhile you're covered in sleaze 
You're like smoke falls out her red brow 


Outro: use interlude chords, end on: Am
