C/D                         G
Lay your body down upon the midnight snow

C/D                             G
Feel the cold of winter in your hair

Cmaj7                   E7sus4
Here in a world of your own

                   Gm/Bb
In a casing that's grown

     Am7          Gm/Bb
To a children's delight

     Am7        [ C/D ]
That arrived overnight
[Verse]

 And here they come to play their magic games

Carving names upon your frozen hand

Cmaj7                   E7sus4
Here in a world of your own

                     Gm/Bb
Like a sleeper whose eyes

         Am7          Gm/Bb
Sees the pain with surprise

      Am7
As it smothers your cries

        A
They'll never, never know

They say a snow year's a good year

Bb              Am                    [ C/D ]
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep
[Interlude] | C/D | % | G | % | [Verse]
C/D                          G
Smiling faces tear your body to the ground

C/D                          Gmaj7
Covered red that only we can see

Cmaj7                    E7sus4
Here in a ball that they made

                     Gm/Bb
From the snow on the ground

       Am7      Gm/Bb
See it rolling away

     Am7
Wild eyes to the sky

        A
They'll never, never know
