C  Em  Am  F 

          C      Em        Am     F
1. Oh the bitter winds are coming in
       C    Em                Am    F
   And I'm already missing the summer
   C           Em       Am        F
   Stockholm's cold but I've been told
         C       Em                  Am    F
   I was born to endure this kind of weather
        C          Em          Am          F
   When it's you I find like a ghost in my mind
        C               Em             G
   I am defeated and I gladly wear the crown

   C                       F
R: I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
      Am                      G
   If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
   C                 F
   No, I'm not asking much of you
        Am          G                  C
   Just sing little darling, sing with me

   C             Em        Am                 F
2. Now so much I know that things just don't grow
          C     Em                     Am     F
   If you don't blessed them with your patience
   C             Em             Am          F
   And I've been there before I held up the door
        C    Em              Am    F
   For every stranger with a promise
   
           C       Em               Am              F
3. But I'm holding back, that's the strength that I lack
        C        Em                   Am    F
   Every morning keeps returning at my window
          C            Em        Am              F
   And it brings me to you and I won't just pass through
   C           Em           G
   But I'm not asking for a storm

R: I'll be your Emmylou...

   Am        Em         F       C
*: And yes I might have lied to you
   Am        Em              F              C
   You wouldn't benefit from knowing of the truth
   Am    Em            F       C
   I was frightened but I held fast
   Am    Em   F        C
   I need you now at long last

R: I'll be your Emmylou... (2x)
