Verse 1
Was a
C#m
long and dark December, From the rooftops I remember
There was
A
snow, white
F#m
snow,
C#m
Clearly I remember from the windows
They were watching while we
A
froze, Down
F#m
below
When the
A
future's architectured, By a
B
carnival of idiots on
C#m
show
You'd better lie
B
low, If you
A
love
G#m
me,
E
won?t you
C#m
let
B
me
C#m
know? Was a
C#m
long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals, And a
A
fox became
F#m
God
C#m
Priests clutched onto bibles, Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the
A
cross was held
F#m
aloft,
A
Bury me an armour
When I?m
B
dead and hit the ground, My nerves are
C#m
poles that
B
unfroze
If you
A
love
G#m
me,
E
won?t you
C#m
let
B
me
C#m
know?
I don?t
A
want to be a soldier, Who
B
the captain of some sinking ship
C#m
Would stow, Far
B
below
So, if you
A
love
G#m
me,
E
why?d you
C#m
let
B
me
C#m
go?
I took my
E
love
A
down to
E
,
C#m
Violet
B
Hill
A
B
There we
C#m
sat
G#m
in the
A
snow,
A
All
B
that
C#m
time
F#m
she was
E
C#m
silent
B
still,
G#m
Said if you
A
love
G#m
me,
E
won?t you
C#m
let
B
me
A
know?
G#m
If you lov
A
e me
G#m
,
wo
E
n?t you le
C#m
t me
B
kn
C#m
