Verse
[Gm]Birds were falling from the sky a[D#]ll leaves had turned to brown [Dm]
The heartless cold froze everything and took my poor red down
Chorus
[Gm]Poor old red she's dead and [D#]gone her eyes I do reme[Dm]mber
At least I have this old guitar to get me through December
Through [C]December
Through [Gm]December
VerseHer eyes were dark as winter's night both somehow young and oldI loved her most the day she died her hair was coloured gold
ChorusPoor old red she's dead and gone her eyes I do rememberAt least I have this old guitar to get me through DecemberThrough DecemberThrough December
VerseOld man winter at my door the sky heavy with snowAll's cold but my heart poor red it's hard to let you go
ChorusPoor old red she's dead and gone her eyes I do rememberAt least I have this old guitar to get me through DecemberThrough DecemberThrough December
