I Felt A Chill Before The Winter Came guitar

[when i was cruel]

Hey once again I am at the old 6 string so I was curious if anyone could help with this beautiful, sentimental, country song.

[redlandmark]

On first listen through with a guitar (no warranty here!), I would play it like this.

There is some guesswork/feel involved in deciding between the As / A7s etc, due to the number of stringed instruments in the mix it's difficult to offer a definitive verdict...

Someone with a solo version may be able to offer more insight.

Code: Select all

Intro:   G   A    D   A7sus4(#02233)

Well, there's a difference in the way that you kissed me
                D        
And there's a sadness in your eyes that you can't hide
             G                                    D

Why do you tremble when I hold you?
           A    A7        D    D7

I wonder if you feel the same
         E7

I felt the chill before the winter came
   
           A                       A7


(2nd verse follows same pattern)

Chorus:

I felt the chill before the winter came
           G                D   

I suffered the guilt and then accepted the blame
               G              D            A

I wanted you before you ever spoke my name
  G                     A     A7       D


But I knew that we would go wrong
      Em                    A

Just as they do in all in those old tragic songs
             Fm                            Bm

Did that melody haunt your mind? 
         G

Just like a linger of perfume
            Em

Now you're in someone else's arms, locked up in another room
           E                 E7              A          A/G  A/F# A/E


   
(Following verses & choruses follow same patterns, until)




I felt the cold creeping over my skin...
           G             D

Still as the air until the wind rushed in
             G             D           A

Still in control, holding on to my heart and soul
G                         Em

Only inches from sin
     A           D
