Michigan For The Winter

Capo: 4th fret

[Verse 1]
D
I need a change of scene 'til the seasons change
                                    G
Maybe longer nights, maybe shorter days
 
Will get me over what I can't get past
 
If you're gone and you won't come back
D
Maybe a little space or a little time
                                             G
Somewhere far from here will get you off my mind
 
I can't stay watching you move on all February long
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
              D
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
 
Between the dark and the light of the sky and the snow
      G
Most people go south for the weather
 
Instead of hiding out in the cold, but
 
 
[Chorus 1]
D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
     A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
 
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
     D
I'm either waiting out your memory
        A
Or for you don't wanna come back to me
      G
Whichever comes first until it don't hurt no more
 
I'll be up North
              D                      G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
               D      G
I'm going to Michigan
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
This seven-hour long empty rear-view drive
                                     G
Isn't what I want, but I guess it's time
 
To say goodbye to the way things were
 
I've finally come to terms, but
 
 
[Chorus 1]
D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
     A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
 
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
     D
I'm either waiting out your memory
        A
Or for you don't wanna come back to me
      G
Whichever comes first until it don't hurt no more
 
I'll be up North
               D                     G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
     D    G
Ooh, yeah
 
 
[Bridge]
               D
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
 
'Tween the dark and the light of the sky and the snow
       G
Most people go south for the weather
 
But I just wanna be alone
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
      A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
 
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
D
While I'm waiting out your memory
       A
Girl, the only place that I'm supposed to be
     G
Is sittin' in a chair with a Bible or a beer
 
'Til my heart don't hurt no more
               D                     G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
                     D                     G
Yeah, I'm going to Michigan for the winter
