A hazy shade of winter Paul simon Dm C Time time time see what's become of me Bb Am while I looked around for possabilities C I was so hard to please CHORUS Dm C Bb(7) A7 Dm but look around leaves are brown and the sky is a hazy shade of winter C hear the salvation army band down by the riverside it's bound to be a better ride than what've got planned, carry your cup in your hand and CHORUS hang on to your hopes my friend, that's an easy thing to say but if your hopes should pass away, simply pretend that you can build them again Dm C7 Bb7 A7 Dm look around the grass is high, the fields are ripe, its the springtime up my life F Fmaj7 C9 season's change with scenery, weaving time in a tapestry Dm A7 Dm C won't you stop and remember me at any convenient time? Bb Am Funny how memory skips, while looking over manuscripts of unpublished rhyme C drinking my vodka and lime CHORUS: I look around leaves are brown now and the sky is a hazy shade of winter C Bb7 A7 Dm Look around leaves are brown there's a patch of snow on the ground
