Hot Buttered Rum by Mary Chapin Carpenter
Hot Buttered Rum
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: F
[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
[Refrain]
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
[Refrain]
F C F
You''''re my sweet maple sugar, honey, hot buttered rum
[Instrumental]
[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
[Refrain]
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
[Outro Instrumental]
