[Am] Maybe I should close the [Bb] door ... [Bb]

My [Am] memories are warm and [Bb] clear ... [Bb]
but every [C] body [F] knows it's [C] hard to be a-[Bb]-lone
at this [C] time of [F] year. [Bb] [F]
It was [F] only a winter's [Gm] tale
[F] just another winter's [Bb] tale
and [F] why should the world take [Bb] no...tice of [F] one more love that's [C] failed
It's a [F] love that can never [Gm] be
though it [F] meant a lot to you and [Bb] me
On a [F] world wide scale we're [C] just another winter's [F] tale
[F] While I stand [F] al[Bb]one
A [Am] bell is ringing far a [Bb]way ...
[Bb] I wonder if you [F] hear, I [C]wonder if you're [Dm] listening
I [Bb] wonder where you are to[C] day
Good [F] luck I wish [F] you [Bb] well
for [Am] all that wishes may be [Bb] worth ...
[Bb] I hope that love and [F] strength are [C] with you for the [Bb] length
of your [C] time on [F] earth. [Bb] [F]
It was [F] only a winter's [Gm] tale
[F] just another winter's [Bb] tale
and [F] why should the world take [Bb] no...tice of [F] one more love that's [C] failed
It's a [F] love that can never [Gm] be
