GD When the rain came I thought you'd leave
GD cause I knew how much you loved the sun
GD But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm
GD Through the darkest nights I've ever known
AG If the mandolin wind couldn't change a thing
EmA Then I know I love ya
 
G D
GD Oh, the snow fell without a break
GD Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know
GD Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years
GD I couldn't believe you kept a smile
AG Now I can rest assured knowing that we've seen the worst
EmA And I know I love ya
 
G D
GD Oh, I never was good with romantic words
GD So the next few lines come really hard
GD Don't have much but what I've got is yours
GD Except of course my steel guitar
A Ha, cause I know you don't play
G But I'll teach you one day
EmA Because I love ya
G D 4x 
A G Em A x2

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