[Regular tuning]



Intro: This could be bass, but on guitar it is a 3rd fret on the low E string.





G6sus2                         A

	On an icy island north

                                       C

	In the woods beside the church

                                       G

	We can bury crills and lockets - filled with dirt

	               A   C

	And when the April thaws

                  Em       Cadd9 C  

	Brings us out again

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	We can bless the arrows

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	And the sun won't stall

                  Em       Cadd9 G

	And the land will never fall



G6sus2                               A

	On virgin fields we'll skate

                                      C

	Snap our children we'll create

                                      G

	But the artic wind breeze ends

                                            A     C

	And windmills thrill - into the threshing floor

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	You can't thresh the snow

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	When the snow is ending

                   Em       Cadd9 C

	There's no deep vine grove

                Em          Cadd9 G

	You can't see the blankets go



G6sus2                             A

	Everything I did was right

                                    C

	Everything I said was wrong

                                       G

	Now we're waiting for the night

                                      A   C

	To bring the dawn - into the only room

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	Where the fire's warm

                  Em       Cadd9 C

	Where we keep our vices warm

                   Em       Cadd9 C

	And that's all that's left

                   Em       Cadd9 G

	All that's left is vices torn
