This is just the chords, but it should be enough for you to start off with. Capoed 2nd fret. G D C The lamp is burning low upon my table top G D G The snow is softly falling G D C The air is still within the silence of my room G D G I hear your voice softly calling First Chorus: G D C D If I could only have you near Bm Em Am D To breathe a sigh or two G D C I would be happy just to hold the hands I love G D G On this winter’s night with you G D C The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead G D G My glass is almost empty G D C I read again between the lines upon each page G D G The words of love you sent me 2nd Chorus: G D C D If I could know within my heart Bm Em Am D That you were lonely too G D C I would be happy just to hold the hands I love G D G On this winter’s night with you G D C The fire is dying now my lamp is getting dim G D G The shades of night are lifting G D C The morning light steals across my window pane G D G Where webs of snow are drifting 3rd Chorus: G D C D If I could only have you near Bm Em Am D To breathe a sigh or two G D C I would be happy just to hold the hands I love G D Bm D Just to be once again with you G D G To be once again with you. Finish out on G.
