C#m
Was a long and dark December
C#add9
From the rooftops I remember
A A7-5 (x0564x)
There was snow
F#m (F#5 - F5 – E5 - D#5)
White snow
C#m
Clearly I remember
C#add9
From the windows they were watching
A A7-5 F#m (F#5 - F5 – E5 - D#5)
While we froze down below
Chorus 1:
A
When the future's architecture
B C#m
By a carnival of idiots on show
B
You'd better lie low
G#m A G#m
If you love me
E C#m B C#m
Won't you let me know
C#m
Was a long and dark December
C#add9
When the banks became cathedrals
A A7 5
And the fog
F#m (F#5 F5 E5 D#5)
Became God
C#m
Priests clutched onto bibles
C#add9
And went out to fit their rifles
A A7 5 F#m (F#5 F5 E5 Eb5)
And the cross was held aloft
Chorus 2:
A
Bury me in armor
B
When I'm dead and hit the ground
F#m C#m B
A love back home unfolds
G#m A G#m
If you love me
E C#m B C#m
Won't you let me know
Interlude:
C#m… C#add9 – A – *A7-5 – F#m (F#5 - F5 – E5 - D#5) x2
* (x0564x)
Chorus 3:
A
I don't want to be a soldier
B
With the captain of some sinking ship
C#m
With snow
B
Far below
G#m A G#m
So if you love me
E C#m B C#m
Why'd you let me go?
Ending:
E A E- C#m B A
I took my love down to violet hill
B C#m G#m A
There we sat in snow
A B C#m F#m E C#m B
All that time she was silent still
G#m A G#m
So if you love me
E C#m B A
Won't you let me know?
G#m A G#m
If you love me
E C#m B C#m
Won't you let me know?
