I've loved Sarah's version since I first heard it on "B-Sides", and here is
my humble effort at transcribing it. These are the actual chords used in
the recording - someone else more proficient will have to come up with the
tabs. I can't really barre B very well, so I use G - D - C and so on
instead, and while I can't play along with Sarah on the CD, it's good
enough to sing along to.

(change your settings to a monospace font so you can get the chord cues right)

Song For A Winter's Night
Music and Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot
As performed by Sarah McLachlan on "B-Sides, Rarities and Other Stuff"

1st verse:
FF Piano Chord 
           CC Piano Chord 
             BB Piano Chord 

The lamp is burning low upon my table top
FF Piano Chord 
           CC Piano Chord 
      FF Piano Chord 

The snow is softly falling
FF Piano Chord 
          CC Piano Chord 
                BB Piano Chord 

The air is still within the silence of my room
FF Piano Chord 
           CC Piano Chord 
            BB Piano Chord 

I hear your voice softly calling

1st bridge:
FF Piano Chord 
          CC Piano Chord 
    BB Piano Chord 
        CC Piano Chord 

If I could only have you near
AmAm Piano Chord 
           CmCm Piano Chord 
      BB Piano Chord 
   CC Piano Chord 

To breathe a sigh or two

Chorus:
FF Piano Chord 
          CC Piano Chord 
             BB Piano Chord 

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
FF Piano Chord 
       CC Piano Chord 
                   FF Piano Chord 

On this winter's night with you

2nd verse:
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
My glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines upon each page
The words of love you send me

2nd bridge:
If I could know within my heart
That you were lonely too

Chorus:
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
On this winter's night with you

3rd verse:
The fire is dying now my lamp is getting dim
The shades of night are lifting
The morning light steals across my windowpane
Where webs of snow are drifting

3rd bridge:
FF Piano Chord 
          CC Piano Chord 
    BB Piano Chord 
        CC Piano Chord 

If I could only have you near
AmAm Piano Chord 
           CmCm Piano Chord 
      BB Piano Chord

To breathe a sigh or two

Last Chorus:
FF Piano Chord 
          CC Piano Chord 
             BB Piano Chord 

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

On this winter's night with you

               FF Piano Chord 

And to be once again with you


That's all folks... enjoy! :-)
