93 bpm Intro Em 4 Am 2 Em2
Em Am Em
Walking with you / in the winter / air
Em Am Em
the snow floating by / without a / care
Am Em
holding hands, watching a / tractor going by
B Am Em Am Em
we look each / other / in / the / eye B Em
Walking by the bank of the / Brecon Radnor / Wye
no one here on earth, / just you and / I
I thought that I would be yours, / you would be mine
but that // became / changed / by / time
No, not now, that was / many years / back
when you and I were on a / parallel / track
but like two hawks up high we / began to drift apart
now you had a / new man / in / your / heart
I keep going to the Bridge End for a / quiet, lonesome / beer
the flickering of the logs / bringing me some / cheer
the people in there are good, / they let me be
alone in a / half-empty, / misty / memory
Am Em
ten pm comes yet again, / now it’s time for me
Am Em
to go home in a semblance of a / half reality
Am Em
I think of you again, the places / where we used to go
B Am / Em Am Em / B Em
but where I am / now, I’m not sure / I / want to / know
I walk alone without you / in the winter air
the snow we once enjoyed / now no longer there
it went away just like the / love we both once knew
in the rhythm of the / Wye, I / hear you / crying / too
