G             C
It is a cold winter
G            C
Away is the songbird
G                A#
And gone is her traveller
  F           F#
She waits at home
G              C
The sun is on holiday
 G                 C
No leaves on the trees
    G         C
The animals sleep
  C         A#         C
While cold north wind blows

The snowflakes are falling
The roof a white blanket
There's ice on the windowpane
She waits alone
She sits by the fireside
The room is so warm
Her children are sleeping
She waits in their home

C            G
Passing the time
Passing the time
Everything fine
Passing the time, having the wine
Passing the time, drinking red wine
Passing the time, everything's fine
Passing the time, drinking red wine
Passing the time, everything's fine
Passing the time, drinking red wine
Passing the time, everything's fine
Passing the time, wine and time rhyme
             A    G
Passing the time

It is a long winter
Away is the songbird
She waits for her traveller
So far from home
She sits by the fireside
The room is so warm
There's ice on the window
She's lonely alone
