         G                         D 
When the rain came I thought you'd leave 
        G                           D 
cause I knew how much you loved the sun 
        G                       D 
But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm 
            G                        D 
Through the darkest nights I've ever known 
       A                      G 
If the mandolin wind couldn't change a thing 
              Em   A 
Then I know I love ya
[Strumentale]
G D
[Versetto]
        G                   D 
Oh, the snow fell without a break 
G                          D 
Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know 
            G                        D 
Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years 
  G                           D 
I couldn't believe you kept a smile 
          A                               G 
Now I can rest assured knowing that we've seen the worst 
             Em   A 
And I know I love ya
[Strumentale]
G D
[Versetto]
G                           D 
Oh, I never was good with romantic words 
       G                          D 
So the next few lines come really hard 
G                             D 
Don't have much but what I've got is yours 
  G                          D 
Except of course my steel guitar 
            A 
Ha, cause I know you don't play 
         G 
But I'll teach you one day 
          Em   A 
Because I love ya

G                     D 
I recall the night we knelt and prayed 
G                       D 
Noticing, your face was thin and pale 
  G                        D 
I found it hard to hide my tears 
  G                        D 
I felt ashamed, I felt I'd let you down 
   A                      G 
No mandolin wind couldn't change a thing 
         Em                 A 
Couldn't change a thing no, no

A G Em A 
  
    A                        G 
The coldest winter in almost fourteen years 
      Em                       A 
Could never, never change your mind, yeh  
      G 
And I love ya 
                 A 
Yes indeed and I love ya 
      A 
And I love ya 
        G 
Lordy I love ya  
      A 
And I love ya 
         G 
Darlin I love ya. . .
