Disclaimer: Like all my favorite Seattle bands (and many more
from around the globe), this singer can be darned unintelligible,
so if I got some of the words wrong I'll apologize in advance (if
I did get them right, this song's got some pretty weird lyrics).
If anyone has any corrections to the words (or the music for that
matter), please e-mail me and I'll make the corrections and re-
submit the song to the archive. Thanks in advance for any help.
Good playing,

WINTER SONG, The Screaming Trees
VERSE 1
A E
Jesus knockin' on my door
D A
late last night and early this morning
A E
window glass, rusted and weary,
D A
I went straight thru, didn't hear no warning
PRECHORUS
A G D
Just a roll of the dice and a precious fight
Bring you around, its easier
A G D
When I'm wastin' my time and when I'm losin' my mind,
G D E
oh my mind
CHORUS
D A
Try to wait for the sky to fall
D A
It's gone now see it all
D A E A
Whisper some winter in your heart, yea yea yeah
INTERLUDE (SOLO)
A D (repeat 4x)
VERSE 2
A E
Dead end street, just out my back door
D A
I heard once seen a young girl laughin'
A E
Now rain drops fall, away like souls
D A
I wonder if she ever heard mine dyin'
REPEAT PRECHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
END
A E D A
Jesus knockin' on my door, one last time early this mornin'.
