Song: A Cold Night Close to the End
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
