Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
When you close your eyes theres a frightened pride that lives for you
That your mothers life and your fathers eyes cant hide.
You had no choice didnt ask the dice to fall for you
Still your courage comes like thunder through the skies
(Chorus 1)
Youre always the winner, the victor and the giver
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old
(verse 2)
So you carry time down the tortured line where mysteries show
Well hidden from lifes learned and lifes wise
Mans useless ways and worthless conversations
Lie well exposed and humbled in your smile
(Chorus 2)
Youre always the winner, the victor and the giver
Somewhere through that winter, youll never be alone
For evermore the winner, the taker and the giver
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old.
(Bridge)
Still you run out in the morning, with the boys and girls
A miracle of innocence on a head of curls
Well search every reason wherever we roam
To find a place for these broken hearts and bones
Well keep a fire on the hillside, after the summers gone
And well wait her for the war-wounded to come home.
(Chorus 3)
Youre always the winner, the victor and the giver
Somewhere through that winter, youll never be alone
For evermore the winner, the taker and the giver
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old.
