Intro: F Bb F 


verse 1 

F 
When chimney smoke hangs still and low 
Bb 
Across the stubbled fields of snow 
F 
And angry skies reach down and seize 
C 
The sorry blackened bones of trees 
F                              Bb 
In the dead of winter when the silent snowbirds come 

 
F                                   C            F 
You're my sweet maple sugar, honey, hot buttered rum 

F Bb F 

verse 2 
F 
When dreary Christmas decorations 
Bb 
Line the streets and filling stations 
F 
And dime store Santas can't disguise 
C                     Am 
Their empty hands and empty eyes 
F       Am     Dm     F        Bb 
In the dead of winter when the tinsel angels come 


F                                   C            F 
You're my sweet maple sugar, honey, hot buttered rum

verse 3 
F 
When gloves and boots and woolen parkas 
Bb 
Bring cold comfort to the heart 
F 
And bitter memories freeze the tongue 
C                           Am 
And songs of love are left unsung 
F       Am      Dm    F        Bb   F        Bb 
In the dead of winter when the cold feelings come 

 
F                                   C            F 
You're my sweet maple sugar, honey, hot buttered rum 

Ending 
F       Am      Dm    F        Bb   F        Bb 
In the dead of winter when the cold feelings come 
F               Dm                   C            F 
You're my sweet maple sugar, honey, hot buttered rum
