Verse 1
A
It was Anderson's luck that found
Eating bully- beef and
A
drinking the weak coffee
Bm
And it was Anderson's luck
A
that held him out for this long
G
From the city he smelled wood smoke and
A
Bm
wondered how she did alone
Verse 2
A
At night she huddles tight
around the wood stove
G
Listening to radio free,
F#m
A
Bm
waiting for the distant low sounds
A
Of the big guns waking up for the evening
G
And it's just a nuisance,
A
G
a shame that she's used to it
Verse 3
[Refrain 1] Winter's on now
A
He's been months down
Bm
To the fighting for the city
G
Verse 4
Bm
A
She plays a mean game of hide and seek
Em
G
through the back streets
She makes a careful way past
A
frozen eyes under dirty sheets
Bm
She knows the moment when it comes,
A
ain't nothing more than pure luck
G
A great blinding instant then you
A
G
rise up above it all
Verse 5
[Refrain 2] Winter's on now
A
How much longer
Bm
G
Can she hold out in the city
Verse 6
Bm
[Chorus]
A
G
People open wide your eye
Bm
A
G
People open wide your arms
Bm
A
G
People open wide your eye
G
A
And pray, yeah
Verse 7
Bm
It was Anderson's luck to
A
G
be there when it happened
He was on a short leave,
A
they drank weak coffee by the wood stove
Bm
As the low moan of cannon came
A
calling from the mountains
G
Perhaps they heard the shot come
A
G
knocking on their door
Verse 8
[Refrain 3] Winter's on now
A
There ain't no wood anyhow
Bm
G
They laid them under dirty sheets

Verse 9
A
[Chorus] The ten o'clock
news is on
G
In the mouth of the mountains
A
Bm
the city lies still under siege
A
My wife reads quiet at the firelight
G
A
I turn it off, step outside for wood
Verse 10
[Refrain 4] Winter's on now
A
I got coffee on
Bm
My kids sleep safely in the city
G

Winter's on now

There ain't no wood anyhow

They laid them out under dirty sheets
