The other version didn't sound right to me, so here's my tab.

Capo 2nd fret


Intro: C

   C
Be sure to be quiet

In the middle of the night,
         Fm
When the dogs are asleep and

The wind is high.
         C
Grab out things and wait

by the window,
                     E
I'll meet you by the window.


          F
And we'll make no tracks
       G
In the snow.
        C        C/B
We'll follow the lakes to where the
Am                     F
Cold north wind will
             G
Cover for us both
   C
So we can hide.

F            G
And if we survive
    C             C/B
The cold, and the night
        Am               F
In the dead of winter,
                    G
We'll watch the sun rise on the ice
  C
Together

F                G
And if we are to die tonight,
        C         C.B
In your arms I'll lay,
       Am                 F
And it never felt better
                      G
And at least we will leave here
  C 
Together.


La da da da... [F G C C/B Am - F G C] 2x


F                   G
In the still of the night
   C                C/B
My bare hands, your pale skin
  Am                        F
Reflected in the moonlight.
                   G
And we pray and we pray
       C
To the wind.

    F            G
And your hand in my hand's
   C           C/B
As soft as the sunlight 
         Am            F
When the day begins,
                    G
And as cold as the night
      C
Blows in.


F                G
And if we are to die tonight,
  C            C/B
I pray with my heart
              Am               F
That you will love me forever
                     G
And at least we will leave here
  C 
Together.

End On C
