Intro: This could be bass, but on guitar it is a 3rd fret on the low E string.
G6sus2 A
On an icy island north
C
In the woods beside the church
G
We can bury crills and lockets - filled with dirt
A C
And when the April thaws
Em Cadd9 C
Brings us out again
Em Cadd9 C
We can bless the arrows
Em Cadd9 C
And the sun won’t stall
Em Cadd9 G
And the land will never fall
G6sus2 A
On virgin fields we’ll skate
C
Snap our children we’ll create
G
But the artic wind breeze ends
A C
And windmills thrill - into the threshing floor
Em Cadd9 C
You can’t thresh the snow
Em Cadd9 C
When the snow is ending
Em Cadd9 C
There’s no deep vine grove
Em Cadd9 G
You can’t see the blankets go
G6sus2 A
Everything I did was right
C
Everything I said was wrong
G
Now we’re waiting for the night
A C
To bring the dawn - into the only room
Em Cadd9 C
Where the fire’s warm
Em Cadd9 C
Where we keep our vices warm
Em Cadd9 C
And that’s all that’s left
Em Cadd9 G
All that’s left is vices torn
