Intro: G C Dsus2
G
Well, life is short
C Dsus2
But the days and nights are long
G
And time will heal all these wounds some day soon
C Em Dsus2
I'll be rising, I'll be strong
C Cadd9 D Em
But now I'm losing all my battles
C Cadd9 Dsus2
Now I'm down and dropping still
G
And this snow's blowing through like some ghost
C Em Cadd9 Dsus2
With this blue I know too well
G
Broken hearts
C Dsus2
Keep on beating just the same
G
So I guess I can too, go through these moves
C Em Dsus2
Facing forward, walking straight
C Cadd9 D Em
But now my glance keeps drifting downward
C Cadd9 Dsus2
Now my feet can't find their way
G
And this cold's creeping in through my bones
C Em Dsus2 G
Whispering, it's here to stay
