February sixty three the cold would chill your bones
G/F#      Em                           C
There's a couple walking down the road West 4th Street and Jones
D                             D/C
Shoulders hunched against the cold
     G                      C
They walked through melting snow
    Em                    C
She smiles for the camera
                D           G    C    G    C
And he affected not to know

    G                              C                 G
His hands deep in his pockets, his head was slightly bowed
G/F#    Em                           C
All the studied nonchalance that the weather would allow
    D                              D/C
Her arms wrapped around him like a shawl
   G                 C
To keep him from the cold
        Em             Em7
Love so warm can melt away
     C        D      G
What once she had to hold
C    G    C    Em        C    D    G    C    G    C

G                                      C            G    G/F#
Spring came late in sixty three and it faded like a kiss
Em                    C
Winter came in early, landed like a fist
     D                D/C
When Kennedy got shot
        G            C
In that Lincoln limousine
            Em                               C
Drenched us all in blood and splintered bone
      D            G
Right on our TV screen
C    G    C    Em        C    D    G    C    G    C

       G                              C            G
When I kissed my girl on Gower Street how was I to know
     G/F#   Em                      C
That we'd begun to drift apart as I stumbled through Soho
       D           D/C
In the unforgiving neon light
    G                   C
The words she could not speak
     Em                     C
Were written in her mascara
            D      G
That dried upon my  cheek
C    G    C    Em    C    D    G    C    G    C    Em        C    D    G    C    G    C

        G                  Em             C             G
But the world will keep on turning, young lovers drift apart
G/F#                                     C
Bob and Suze's rhyming steps leave their footprints on the heart
       D                     D/C
In the jingle jangle morning
G           C
Dylan and Rotolo
     Em                      C
In a freeze frame photograph
       D  N.C.   G
Eternally,     tomorrow.
