[Intro]
Dm Bb F F G
[Verse 1]
Dm Bb
Lookin back upon the path and I,
F
I can't believe my eyes
F
The boy that I was
Dm
And the man that I've become
Bb
Breakin through this memory
F
I still recall the scene
F
From across the room
Dm
Like something right out of a dream
Bb
And now I sit here trying to find
F
The words to show you my love
F
But they don't come
Dm
They just stay locked up in my head
Bb
So I will vow until the day,
F
This body fades away
F
To hold you high and I'll sing..
[Chorus]
Bb
When the winter comes
Dm
I'll scream your name
C Bb
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper comes
Dm
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
C Bb
"Don't you take her away from me, don't you take her away"
[Interlude]
Dm Bb F F G
[Verse 2]
Dm Bb
I lived my life of vagabond
F
The path that I was on,
Dm
Better to leave than leaving broken in the end
Bb F
But like a moth into the flame, your fire burned away
Dm
All of the fear that I held deep inside my heart
Bb
And though I like it everyway,
F
You still decided to stay
Dm
Dare to look inside and see me for who I am
Bb F
So I will vow until the day, this body fades away
F
To hold you high and I'll sing..
[Chorus]
Bb
When the winter comes
Dm
I'll scream your name
C Bb
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper comes
Dm
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
C Bb
"Don't you take her away from me, don't you take her away"
[Bridge]
Dm C Bb
And I'll see the face that I desire,
Dm
Don't let it burn away
C Bb
A small spark that grew into a fire,
Dm
Don't let it burn away
[Solo]

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Bb
When the winter comes
Dm
I'll scream your name
C Bb
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper comes
Dm
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
C Bb
"Don't you take her away from me, don't you take her away"
[Ending]
Dm C Bb
And I'll see the face that I desire,
Dm
Don't let it burn away
C Bb
A small spark that grew into a fire,
Dm C Bb
Don't let it burn awaaaaaay ... away
