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
