[Verso 1]
  
F           C             Dm          Bb  
The lamp is burning low upon my table top   
F           C      F   
The snow is softly falling   
F          C                Dm            Bb  
The air is still within the silence of my room   
F           C            F   
I hear your voice softly calling   


[Ponte]

1st bridge:   
F          C    Bb       C   
If I could only have you near   
Am           Dm      Bb   C   
To breathe a sigh or two   



[Refrão]
F          C          Dm               Bb   
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love   
F       C                   F   
On this winter's night with you   

2nd verse:   
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead   
My glass is almost empty   
I read again between the lines upon each page   
The words of love you send me   

2nd bridge:   
If I could know within my heart   
That you were lonely too   

Chorus:   
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love   
On this winter's night with you   

3rd verse:   
The fire is dying now my lamp is getting dim   
The shades of night are lifting   
The morning light steals across my windowpane   
Where webs of snow are drifting   


[Ponte]
 (3)   
F          C    Bb        C   
If I could only have you near   
Am           Dm      Bb   C   
To breathe a sigh or two   


[Refrão]
 (last)   
F          C             Bb   
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love   
F       C                   Dm C   
On this winter's night with you   
F         C               F   
And to be once again with you
