A G G A A G G A D! G D
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
G D D
Then I know I love ya G D

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
G D D
Then I know I love ya G D

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
G D
Because I love ya

G D 4x A G G A / A G G A D! G D

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 A G Em A
Couldn't change a thing no, no
