verse 1 
Fmaj7                 Am    Fmaj7 
I guess we're staying home 
               Am     Fmaj7 
Judging by the snow 
                        C 
The streets are covered white, in the glow 
   Em                  Am           Fmaj7 
Of moonlight; and it's cold tonight 

verse 2 
               Am     Fmaj7 
So now we sit alone 
                     Am      Fmaj7 
And nurse our broken bones 
           C 
Every open door has been closed 
        Em                   Am 
And the windows are boarded up 

Pre-Chorus 
           F                           Am 
Do you see light? Does it shine in the dark? 
            F                                     Am 
Do you find hope? Is it hanging by a rope in your heart? 
           Em                                          Am 
Do you get comfort? Does it come when you consider the cross? 
           F                   E      G 
Or are you lost, just like I'm lost? 
             F 
As Christmas comes 


                           C 
I'm not the same as I once was 
Am                                Em 
There are more questions than the answers that I've got 
F                           Am 
So once again I'm forced to strip it down to love 
          C                 Em 
The quiet snow;  nowhere to go 
               Fmaj7 
I'm not giving up 
               Fmaj7 
I'm not giving up 

Bridge 
               C                   Fmaj7 
I'm not giving up (You are my only hope) 
               C                   Fmaj7 
I'm not giving up (You are my only hope) 
               C                   Fmaj7 
I'm not giving up (You are my only hope) 
               C 
I'm not giving up
