Intro: D C (2x)  D 
        
Verse 
                  C             
I cut down that withered peach tree 
D                      C        D 
Just like you asked me to 
                     C 
And I hacked it into pieces 
Em                               D 
Set it on fire with your face in plain view 
       G                     D 
At the near window where you stood 
C                     G 
Watching me split the wood 

G                 D 
I will do as I am told 
C                    G 
I will keep away the cold 

D C 2x D 

Verse 
                    C 
The fire pit in the snow 
D                      C      
Gave off a rich bright orange-red glow 
   D                  C 
A familiar scent rose up into the air 
      Em                                  C 
And I remembered something special from a long time ago 
    G                   D 
You opened up the door 
C                     G 
Stepped away from the killing floor 
     G                                   D 
Your footprint on the snow was fresh and new 
C                          G 
When you touched me I felt fire come through 

G                 D 
I will do as I am told 
C                    G 
I will keep away the cold 
G                 D 
I will do as I am told 
C                    G 
I will keep away the cold
