One day,
D Em Em7
The snow began to fall,
C Em7
And slowly, inch by inch,
Am D
Covered up the earth.
G
'Til finally,
D Em Em7
The top of the tallest building,
C Em7
Was lost beneath a powdered sea,
Am D
As quiet as a shadow's grave.
G D C
And we say that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
Am D G D
Maybe she's heavy with child.

One night,
D Em Em7
A woman took my hand.
C Em7
I left my home and followed her
Am D
Into an icy field.
G D
When I wanted to go back,
Em Em7
I'd lost the way.
C Em7
So she beckoned me to lie beneath
Am D
The stone that always bore my name.
G D C
And we say that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
Am D G D
Maybe she's heavy with child.
G
One morning,
D Em Em7
We woke up in an alley.
C Em7
To the smell of urine, alcohol,
Am D
Trash and gasoline,
G D
With a dim sense of a notion
Em Em7
We'd held something in our hands,
C Em7
That was bigger than us or God,
Am D
And we can never touch again.
G D C
And we say that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
G D C
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
Am D G D
Maybe she's heavy with child.
C D Em
I've been looking at the symptoms for a while,
C D G
Maybe she's heavy with child.
