[Verse 1]
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
The roof is leak - ing, and the wind is howl - ing,
Dm Dm7 Bb/D C/D *
The kids are cry - ing, 'cause the sheets are so cold,
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
Woke this morn - ing, found my hands were fro - zen,
Dm Dm7
I've tried to fix the fire,
Bb/D C/D * Dm C/D Dm
But, you know, ...the damn thing's too old!
[Verse 2]
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
It's been months now, since we heard from our Mar -y,
Dm Dm7 Bb/D C/D *
I wonder if she ever made the coast,
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
Well, she, and her young man, they both moved out there,
Dm Dm7 Bb/D C/D * Dm *
But I sure hope they write, ...just to let us know!
[Verse 3]
Bb Gm F Dm7 * Cadd9
And me, I'm getting stronger by the minute,
Bb Gm F Dm7 * Cadd9
My wife's ex - pecting, but I hope she can wait,
Bb Gm F Dm7 * Cadd9
'Cause this winter looks like it's gonna be a - nother bad one,
Bb Gm F Dm7 Cadd9 Cadd9
But spring'll soon be here, ...oh - oh-------,
Dm
But I hope it's not late----!

[Verse 4]
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
Ma and Pa lived here, and theirs before them,
Dm Dm7 Bb/D C/D
They tried their hard - est to make it a home,
Dm Dm7 Dm C/D Dm *
Seems so long now since they passed o - ver,
Dm Dm7 Bb/D C/D Dm *
'Hope my child - ren ...will try ...to make it their own!
