Verse 1:
     Bb        C                   F
Dear Winter, I hope you like your name
  Bb                   C
I hope they don't make fun of you
     Bb              C               Dm    C
When you grow up and go to school, okay?
Bb              C            F
  'Cause Winter is a badass name

     Bb        C                 F
Dear Winter, I hope you talk to girls
   Bb         C
Or boys or anyone you like
  Bb                  C              Dm    C
I just hope you don't stay in every night
Bb              C           F
  'Cause I wish I was out tonight

Chorus:
Bb         C      F
Ahhh-ah-ah-ahh-ah-ah
   Bb                               C
It really doesn't seem like there's anyone for me
         Bb        Bb                 C
But dear Winter, I hope you like your name
    C                Dm         C                Bb
I'm hoping that someday, I can meet you on this Earth
    Bbm                              F
But xxxx, I gotta meet your mom first

Verse 2:
     Bb        C                   F
Dear Winter, I hope you like this song
    Bb               C
And even when you're 13
        Bb               C              Dm    C
And you scream at me for parenting you wrong
Bb            C               F
  I hope it's still a badass song

Chorus:
Bb         C      F
Ahhh-ah-ah-ahh-ah-ah
   Bb                               C
It really doesn't seem like there's anyone for me
         Bb        Bb                  C
But dear Winter, I hope you like your name
    C              Dm     C                 Bb
You know I cannot wait to teach you how to curse
    Bbm                              F
But xxxx, I gotta meet your mom first

Verse 3:
     Bb            C              F
Dear Winter, don't move too far away
    Bb                   C
And please don't say I'm hovering
     Bb            C               Dm    C
When I text you to ask about your day
Bb         C               F
  I wanna hear about your day

Chorus:
Bb         C      F
Ahhh-ah-ah-ahh-ah-ah
        Bb                               C
Will we still hang out and talk when I'm no longer in charge?
         Bb        Bb                  C
Oh, dear Winter, I hope you like your name
  C               Dm               C            Bb
I hope you let me take a shot with you on your 21st
    Bbm                               F
But xxxx, you gotta ask your mom first

Outro:
     Bb           C                 F 
Dear Winter, I'm looking for your mom
  Bb            C                 Bb               C               Dm    C 
I gotta find a girl that doesn't mind that I'm inside my head a lot
Bb             C             Dm    C 
   Winter, it won't be too long
Bb                C                F 
   First, I just gotta find your mom

It’s a very heartfelt song about a man wanting to find the right girl to settle down with. He’s telling Winter, the baby of his future how much he loves her already.
This song warms my heart!
The strum pattern I use is D D DUD D D U repeat.

Why did it make you laugh? This is a really heartfelt song that Ryan is sing to his future kid. He say that he has to find a girl before Winter comes along. Why is that funny?

It’s funny because the breaks that he takes, and he changes tone. It’s meant to make the listener laugh or smile a little bit. When I first heard this song, it made me cry but now I listen to it with a smile on my face. I want to name one of my kids Winter one day.
