G       Bm          C    Csus4 C
  Hey Nikita is it cold

                      G              Gsus4 G
In your little corner of the world?

                D                Dsus4 D7
You could roll around the globe

                        G             Gsus4 G7
And never find a warmer soul to know

                     C     Csus2 C   C6 C
Oh, I saw you by the wall

                         G         Gsus4 G   Gsus2 G
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row

                           D            D6 D   Dsus4 D7
With eyes that looked like ice on fire

                          G               Gsus4 G7
The human heart a captive in the snow
[Chorus]
                    C             Csus2 C
Oh, Nikita you will never know

          G
Anything about my home

Gsus4 G                               D
I'll  never know how good it feels to hold you

Dsus4 D7         G             Gsus4 G7
Oh,     Nikita I need you so

                  C             Csus2 C
Oh, Nikita is the other side

             G              Gsus2
Of any given line in time

G                              D
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row?

[Break] |(G) | Bm Bm7 | C | C#m7b5 Dsus4 | [Verse 2]
G         Bm            C      Csus4
   Do you ever dream of me?

C                           G              Gsus4 G
Do you ever see the letters that I write?

                             D        Dsus4 D7
When you look up through the wire

                        G                Gsus4 G7
Nikita do you count the stars at night?

                     C     Csus2 C   C6 C
And if there comes a time

                         G            G6sus4 G   G6sus2 G
Guns and gates no longer hold you in

                             D       D6sus2 D   Dsus4 D7
And if you're free to make a choice

                               G                Gsus4 G7
Just look towards the west and find a friend
[Chorus]

Oh, Nikita you will never know

          G
