G           G/F#       G/E                   Am           Am Am/G
Yesterday's newspapers forecasts no rain for today,
    D/F#        D                                    G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
but yesterday's news was old news, the skies are all grey.
G           G/F#      G/E                         Am           Am Am/G
Winter's in labor and soon will give birth to the spring
    D/F#         D                               G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
and sprinkle the meadows with flowers for my Angeline.

[Verse 2]
G             G/F#       G/E                Am           Am Am/G
Heartache and sorrow and sadness unendingly find,
D/F#       D                                    G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
wings on a memory and with them she flies to my mind.
G                 G/F#       G/E                       Am          Am Am/G
She stretched her arms for a moment, then went back to sleep,
      D/F#          D                            G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
while morning stood watching me ever so silently weak.

[Verse 3]
    G          G/F#            G/E                        Am           Am Am/G
She opened her eyes, Lord, the minute my feet touched the floor,
    D/F#           D                                     G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
the cold hard-wood creaked with each step that I made to   the door.
       G             G/F#       G/E                         Am           Am Am/G
Then I turned to her gently and said, "Hon, just look, it's spring",
        D/F#        D                                 G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
knowing outside the window, the winter looked for Angeline.

[Outro 1]
G           G/F#      G/E                    Am           Am Am/G
Yesterday's newspaper forecast no rain for today,
    D/F#        D                                  G   G/F#  G/E D* E* F#*
but yesterday's news is old news the skies are all grey.
