[Intro 1]
[F][Am][G][F][Am][G]
[F]

[Verse 1]
The night creeps [F]through
my bones with a winter's [Am]chill[G][F]
Sending shivers down my spine,
like cold hands across my skin
Five months have [G]past [Am]and taken with
them every sense [F]of warmth
[G]Until my blood ran [Am]cold
and [Dm]life [C]stood still
[Am]And still I [B5]hold m[Am]y breath,
[Dm]counting the nights [Am]I've stood with [B5]my heart i[Am]n hand
[C]And[G] sti[Am]ll I [B5]hold[Am] my breath[B5],[Am]
[Dm]counting the nights
[Am]Waiting for [G]silence [Am]to break[C]
[G]me [Am]down [B5]agai[Am]n[C][B5][C][Dm]
If [F]only you [G]could [Am]see [C]it i[B5]n my[G] ey[Dm]es,[F][G]
[Am]how much it me[C]an[Dm]s
Your [F]touch, your [G]smile, [Am]to a heart that's beat[C]
has [G]long since [Dm]given [F]out and [G]given [Dm]in[Am]
The night opens wide,
[C]swa[B5]llowi[Am]ng every sense[C][Am]
Embracing me [C]with [B5]empti[Am] ness

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 2]
[F]The hours have be [C]com[Dm]e irr[Am]itat[F]ions and I find myself red[Dm]uced
to [Am]life's [F]imitation[Dm][Am][F][Dm]
[Am][F][G][F][Am][F][G]
[Am]
[F]How can we truly say[G] we are ali[Am]ve when everything I see
[F]in [G]me is [Am]screaming[F][G][Am]
[F]oth[G]erw[Am]ise?[F][G]
[F]It's screaming oth[Am]erwis[F]e
‘Cause five months have [G]past and [Am]taken
with them every sense [F]of warmth
[G]Until my blood ran [Am]cold and [F]life[G][Am]
stood [F]still[G][Am][F][G]
[Am][F][G][Am]
[F]The hours [Dm]have [Am]become [F]irritations and I find my[Dm]self
reduced to [Am]life's imitation
