Verse 1
to you now with my
To commit my soul by my own free will
F
Dm
For if I don't dare to climb that hill
Then tell my tale nobody will
F
C
Dm
One winter's night, long ago
They were wide awake in a carriage house
And I snuck to the window
like a stable mouse
F
Dm
The I can't forget and my
hair's gone white
F
The things I saw in the flickering light
C
Dm
One winter's night, long ago
They were all in the kitchen
and the drink did flow
There was
Bing and
Dean on the radio
F
Dm
The wind did howl, it was ten below
They were safe and sound from
F
C
Dm
the ice and snow
And on the windowsill by the candle's glow
I could see an old cat gallery
F
Dm
A bowl of cloves and pistachios
A bow on a thistle and some mistletoe
F
C
Dm
The twilight winters night, long ago
Once I surveyed the scene,
I made my haste
F
Up to the chimney without a trace
Dm
For the sand runs fast at a rapid pace
And it's
Christmas
F
C
Dm
Eve, no time to waste
I crept past the kitchen on
the tip of my toes
Straight to the parlor where
F
the pine tree grows
Dm
A string of socks lined up in rows
I was followed by that old cat,
Calico
F
C
Dm
One winter's night, long ago
There in the house of the family hood
They had nine little babes
and they'd all been good
F
Dm
I was carrying more than
an old man should
F
C
Dm
Nine little kittens made out of wood
As I knelt beneath that
Christmas tree and spread
the gifts out quietly
F
Dm
All at once, so suddenly,
I found myself with company
F
C
Dm
For winter's night, I'm all alone
His presence shocked and bothered me
For I must work in secrecy
F
Dm
But there he was, all shadowy
His features clipped in mystery
F
Dm
His voice was low and billowy
As he offered his apology
F
Dm
Do not fear, he said to me
And pardon my proximity
F
Dm
My name is
Arthur
Hood, he said
But you can call me
Art instead
F
Dm
I built the floor upon which we tread
F
And I built the roof up over it
Dm
And much like you I am seldom seen,
rarely one to intervene
F
Dm
I fix things up and I keep things clean,
catching leaks and mending screens
F
Dm
And I've always felt that you and
I were of one fate to occupy
F
Dm
Pleased to meet you eye to eye
And he wished me well
Then he said goodbye
F
In the winter's night
C
Dm
Long ago
It was time to go
For the bells did ring
I had a list of lists
About a thousand things
F
Dm
My swan song I shall not sing,
F
for thee I must leave what the silence brings
C
Dm
For it's winter's night, come on home
I was heading for the chimney
just as slow as I could
When I saw on the mantel
F
carved into the wood
Dm
Six little words that would shiver me good
In loving memory of
Arthur
F
Hood
C
Dm
One winter's night long ago
In loving memory of
Arthur
