I only know this song from the SOLO-album. But it comes from the album
Homeless (1974).
The song starts with flageolets on
the twelfth and seventh fret. I`d guess the song is easy to play
when you heard it on the record. The musical intermezzo are
just the chords in the refrain until the Em. But i guess you`ll
find that out. Just before he plays Winter has me etc. there`s a
little solo which is played this way:
----------------3---3---2-----
---------------0-0-0---3------
-------0------0---0---2-------
--0-0h2---------------------
---------------------2--------
-----------3------------------
winter has me etc.

In fact i have to admit this song is worked out by an old
schoolfriend: henny fonville. I haven`t seen him for more than 10
years, but maybe some day he finds his way to OLGA too.

Well good luck playing it,

Winter has me in it`s grip - Don Mclean

G D(B-bass)
Winter has me in it`s grip
Am D7
think i`ll take a summer trip
Am D7
on a sunny sailing ship
Em D7
where the shells lie in the sand

musical intermezzo

G D(B-bass)
I feel so lonely
Am D7
I`m to young to feel this old
G D(B-bass)
I need you and you only
Am D7
when the weather gets this cold

Winter has me in it`s etc.

There`s no use in going
cause it`s cold inside my heart
and it`s always snowing
since the day we broke apart

Winter has me in it`s etc.

I tried to run from winter
like this spring and summer run to fall
But when the weather `s in you
ther`s no hiding place at all, thats why

Winter has me in it`s grip etc.
