1. Oh the bitter winds are coming in
C Em Am F
And I'm already missing the summer
C Em Am F
Stockholm's cold but I've been told
C Em Am F
I was born to endure this kind of weather
C Em Am F
When it's you I find like a ghost in my mind
C Em G
I am defeated and I gladly wear the crown
C F
R: I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
Am G
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
C F
No, I'm not asking much of you
Am G C
Just sing little darling, sing with me
C Em Am F
2. Now so much I know that things just don't grow
C Em Am F
If you don't blessed them with your patience
C Em Am F
And I've been there before I held up the door
C Em Am F
For every stranger with a promise
C Em Am F
3. But I'm holding back, that's the strength that I lack
C Em Am F
Every morning keeps returning at my window
C Em Am F
And it brings me to you and I won't just pass through
C Em G
But I'm not asking for a storm
R: I'll be your Emmylou...
Am Em F C
*: And yes I might have lied to you
Am Em F C
You wouldn't benefit from knowing of the truth
Am Em F C
I was frightened but I held fast
Am Em F C
I need you now at long last
R: I'll be your Emmylou... (2x)
