Chords
pin

# ** THIS VERSION IS FROM THE SOLO SESSIONS AT THE KNITTING FACTORY PERFOMANCE 
# ITS IN A DIFFERENT KEY FROM THE STUDIO RECORDING **

# You play these same chords the whole song.  The third chord in the progression is # just the F/C chord slid up 2 frets, I have the G annotated as closed but it can be # played open as well. 

Intro: 
C   F/C   4x35   F/C


Verse 1:
C             F/C
    I pray for better days to come
4x35             F/C
    I pray that I would see the sun
C   	       F/C
    Cuz life is so burdensome
4x35             F/C 
    When everyday's a rainy one
C               F/C
    But suddenly there's no more clouds
4x35          F/C
    I believe without a doubt
C              F/C
    That heaven sent an angel down
4x35                 F/C
    And then she turned my life around
C           F/C
    You know and I know
4x35           F/C
    Friends come and friends go
C              F/C
    Storms rise and winds blow
4x35             F/C
    But one thing I know for sure


Chorus:
   C                F/C    
    When it's cold outside
4x35               F/C
    There's no need to worry cause
   C        F/C    
    I'm so warm inside
4x35          F/C
    You give me peace
   C         F/C
    When the storm's outside
4x35              F/C
    Cause we're in love I know
     C        F/C
    It'll be alright
4x35          F/C
    Alright it's alright

C    F/C  4x35  F/C
              Yeah..

C    F/C  4x35  F/C



Verse 2:
C                   F/C
    Now peace is so hard to find
4x35                F/C
    We're terrorized and victimized
C             F/C
    But that's when I close my eyes
       4x35           F/C
    And think of you to ease my mind
C               F/C
    You take me to another place
4x35                  F/C
    There's no more war, just love and grace
C             F/C
    Baby you restore my faith
4x35                        F/C
    I know the struggle's not in vain
C             F/C
    You know and I know
4x35               F/C
    Through all the battles
C          F/C
    Baghdad to Israel
4x35                     F/C
    There's one thing I know for sure


Chorus:
   C                F/C    
    When it's cold outside
4x35               F/C
    There's no need to worry cause
   C        F/C    
    I'm so warm inside
4x35          F/C
    You give me peace
   C         F/C
    When the storm's outside
4x35              F/C
    Cause we're in love I know
          C    F/C     4x35
    It'll be alright
                   F/C
    Alright it's alright


C            F/C
    Alright it's alright
4x35         F/C
    Alright it's alright
C            F/C     4x35  F/C
    Alright it's alright


Chorus:
              C      F/C
    When it's cold outside
4x35                  F/C
    There's no need to worry cause
        C      F/C
    I'm so warm inside
4x35           F/C
    You give me peace
          C       F/C
    When the storm's outside
4x35               F/C
    Cause we're in love I know
          C    F/C
    It'll be alright
4x35         F/C
    Alright it's alright
    
(Keep playing the same chords)
Cuz you give me peace
In the middle of the storm
When it's cold you're keeping me warm
It's alright
It's alright
I'm never gonna leave
You give me what I need
It's alright, alright
