[Intro]
Gm              Eb
"The courage to look inside myself
Bb                  F
Deep in the corners where I never appear
Gm                    Eb
The will to face your darkest friend
Bb                             F
And realize it's always been a part of yourself"

[Instrumental]
Gm      Eb     Bb     F
               Yeah  -eah  oo-
Gm      Eb     Bb     F
-oh            Wooo-  oh
Eb      Cm     Gm     F N.C.

[Verse 1]
Gm
As the lights are growing dim
Gm
Freezing cold, slowly is fading in
Gm             F
Another winter night will hold
Eb
This wicked soul

Gm
I will wait for the new sun to rise
Gm
Blind in darkness, witness my demise
Gm             F           Eb     Gm
Another winter night is so looooong

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm                           Bb        F
The lands are dressed in the purest white
     Eb             D     N.C.
Pure as I was and I am no more

[Chorus]
Gm          Eb                  Bb
The ones of you who are free of guilt
                   F                   Gm
Wound me with your stones and then step in
              Eb                  Bb        F
Buried in the whitest snow I will suddenly awake
Gm  N.C.
    The winter wake

[Verse 2]
Gm
As the steps are leaving trails
Gm
Of the side of me I hate
Gm             F
This is the night when I will face
Eb
All my disgrace

Gm
Cover me, cover all that I see
Gm
A single light flake for your heart and the sea
Gm                 F                 Eb    Gm
A single flake for all the good one, yeeeaaah

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm                           Bb           F
The lands are dressed in the purest whiiite
     Eb             D     N.C.  F
Pure as I was and I am no moooore, yeah

[Chorus]
Gm          Eb                  Bb
The ones of you who are free of guilt
                   F                   Gm
Wound me with your stones and then step in
              Eb                  Bb        F
Buried in the whitest snow I will suddenly awake
Gm  N.C.
    The winter wake

[Interlude]
Gm     Bb    F    Gm F
Gm     Bb    F    Gm F

[Chorus]
Gm          Eb                  Bb
The ones of you who are free of guilt
                   F                   Gm
Wound me with your stones and then step in
              Eb                  Bb        F
Buried in the whitest snow I will suddenly awake

Gm          Eb                  Bb
I spent my time gazing at the stars
                F               Gm
As silently it snows inside my heart
                  Eb                   Bb  F
Someone said that life brings and then takes
Gm  N.C.       Eb   Cm   Gm   F
    The winter    waaaaake,  ooooh

[Outro]
Gm
  Oooooh
