[Chorus]
Em Standing on the boulevard Em You wish to know my name Am7 I'm the Ice Maiden Am7 Em I think perhaps you like being unhappy Am7 Em I'm the Ice Maiden, the limit of your dreams
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Arctic winds blow and still you believe D Db7 Loves makes you one of the chosen Cmaj7 Die in the snow, I'll never grieve D E So what if tomorrow you're frozen Cmaj7 And death is a small price for heaven
[Middle 8]
[N.C.] Em7 F#m7 Em7 Welcome to the glow of high octane affairs F#m7 Em7 F#m7 Em7 Esperanto style and blonde dishevelled hair F#m7 Em7 F#m7 Em7 Subterranean streams, duckling you're a swan F#m7 Em7 F#m7 Em7 Infinities of dreams imploding into one
[Bridge]
D A All those nights I dreamt of you A I wonder where they've gone
[Interlude]

Bm9 Standing on the boulevard Bm9 I've always known your name Em7 You're the Ice Maiden Em7 Bm9 Let you and I grow frosty together Em7 Bm9 You're the Ice Maiden, today you meet your match
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 Girl when I burn, hell nothing's the same! A Ab7 I'll singe your pretty blonde lashes Gmaj7 We're talking fire, we're talking flame A Ab7/C We're talking ice into ashes Gmaj7 But death is a small price for heaven
