Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
[Verse]
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
I was born some time ago
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
In this very room
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
There’s many who have come and gone
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Maybe one more soon
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Seasons come, seasons go
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Some talking in between
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Staring out the window now
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
At all that I have been
[Chorus]
D G Cadd9 Am
Someone is singing some crazy song
Em
On the painstain radio
D G Cadd9 A7
My hands they are ringing as I gaze upon
A
These frozen fields of snow
[Verse]
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
My father was a violent man
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
He died in '63
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
My mother broke her silence then
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
She looked after me
[Chorus]
D G Cadd9 Am
We dug her deeper well for water
Em D
She told me water makes you free
G Cadd9 A7
She lost her only daughter
A
Her name was Mary-Lee
[Verse]
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
They called me up and threw me in
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
And there I lost my heart
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
I forgot where I had been
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Till I wake up in the dark
[Chorus]
D G Cadd9 Am
I heard her voice saying you’re going home
Em
As my blood begin to flow
D G Cadd9 A7
My mama was calling and beckoning
A
From the frozen fields of snow
[Verse]
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Something out there is going to ground
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Lying under open skies
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Birds of pray are swooping down
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Picking out their eyes
[Chorus]
D G Cadd9 Am
Spring time is coming and is none too soon
Em
I think it’s time for me to go
D G Cadd9 A7
I can see color green and poken through
A
Through the frozen field of snow
[Verse]
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
My secrets are whispering
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
In this fading light
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
I have killed and I have loved
D G Em7 Gsus4/C Em7 G
Time it will decide
