C G
Snowman doesn’t really melt he just slowly falls apart
F G C
Cos no one built a snow girl to heal his broken heart
G F
We walk through life like snowmen and gradually we melt
C N.C.
Cos no one seems to understand the feelings that we felt
C G
Our love somehow in this winter rain
F G C
Left just hat and scarf beneath the window pane
Am Ab+ Am7
Spring pops his head out from underneath the sheets
Am Ab+ C
And the cold and dark of winter begins its long retreat
Am Ab+ Am7 D7
Blossom brightly doffs his hat at everyone he greets
F N.C. C
And the love you showed for me has come and gone
C G
We’re Guy Fawkes dummy roaming town we beg for 50p
F G C
Hold our freezing hands out thinking I wish this wasn’t me
G F
Carrot for a nose ain’t bad a piece of coal for eyes
C N.C.
A bunch of twigs for lovin’ arms where nothing can disguise
C G
This night is done I’m burning bright
F G C
I’m off with snowman’s heart into the night
Am Ab+ Am7
Winter drops its silent leaves like bombs upon our sun
Am Ab+ C
Like a swarm of bees we embrace the breeze with nowhere left to run
Am Ab+ Am7 D7
And the fly begins to yearn the warmth of the web the spider’s spun
F C
And the love you showed for me has come and gone
C G
In hat and scruffy jacket strangers pass me by
F G C
Confident November here and it’s time for us to die
