1. Verse:
A E
A E
When the rain came I thought youd leave
A E
cause I knew how much you loved the sun
A E
But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm
A E
Through the darkest nights Ive ever known
B A
If the mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
A E A E
Then I know I love ya
2. Verse:
A E
A E
Oh the snow fell without a break
A E
Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know
A E
Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years
A E
I couldnt believe you kept a smile
B A
Now I can rest assured knowing that weve seen the worst
A E A E
And I know I love ya
3. Verse:
A E
A E
Oh I never was good with romantic words
A E
So the next few lines come really hard
A E
Dont have much but what Ive got is yours

Except of course my steel guitar

Ha, cause I know you dont play
A
But Ill teach you one day
A E
Because I love ya

4. Verse:
A E
A E
I recall the night we knelt and prayed
A E
Noticing your face was thin and pale
A E
I found it hard to hide my tears
A E
I felt ashamed I felt Id let you down
B A
No mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
A B B A
Couldnt change a thing no, no
