CAPO: 2nd Fret

[INTRO]
[F] [C] [F] [C] [F]

[VERSE 1]
The snow lay up a[C]gainst the curb [F]
Finally beaten by the [Em]sun [Am] [G] [F]
Across the street the noon [C]whistle blows [D]
Calling back every[F]one [G] [F]

[VERSE 2]
They came out from the [C]luncheonettes [F]
Taverns and pharma[Em]cies [Am] [G] [F]
Crossed the wet street [C]back to work [D]
Coats unbuttoned, [F]talking easi[G]ly [F]

[VERSE 3]
Ice is cracked on the [C]river [F]
Rolling out to the [Em]bay [Am] [G] [F]
On one floe rides a [C]bob-house [D]
There's always one who stays [F]out too long they [G]say [F]

[VERSE 4]
And there ain't much to [C]millwork [F]
The days just go on and [Em]on and [Am]on [G] [F]
And there ain't much to [C]leaving home [D]
Till you finally cut the cord and [F]know that you're [G]gone [F]

[VERSE 5]
And there ain't much to [C]ice fishing [F]
Till you're gone a day or [Em]more [Am] [G] [F]
And the hole you've cut freezes [C]over [D]
And it's like you have [F]never been there be[G]fore
