Hey sweet Annie, don’t take it so bad
D A7
you know the summer’s coming soon
C D Bm C
though the interstate is choking under salt and dirty sand
Am C
and it seems the sun is hiding from the moon
G C D G
Your daddy told you when you were a girl
B C
the kind of things that come to those who wait
C G C G
so give it a rest girl, take a deep breath girl
Am C
and meet me at the Bay State tonight

Chorus:
D C G
The snow is coming down on our New England town
D Em Am
and it’s been falling all day long
C D C Em
what else is new?, what could I do?
C D G
I wrote a valley winter song to play for you

G Bm C C (x2)
Em C G
And late December, can drag a man down
D A7
you feel it deep in your gut
C D Bm C
short days and afternoons spent pottering around
Am C
in a dark house with the windows painted shut
G C D G
Remember New York staring outside
B C
as wreckless winter made its way
C G C G
from Staten Island to the Upper West Side
Am C
whiting out our streets along the way
———-
Chorus 2:
D C G
The snow is coming down on our New England town
D Em Am
and it’s been falling all day long
C D C Em
what else is new?, what can I do?
C D G
but sing this valley winter song I wrote for you
