Key: Bm
Introduction:
F#
EASY VERSION:
Bm
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
G Em
There was snow, white snow
Bm
Clearly I remember from the windows
G
They were watching while we froze
Em
Down below
G
When the future' s architectured
A Bm
By a carnival of idiots on show
A
You' d better lie low
G F#m D Bm A Bm
If you love me, won&rsquo t you let me know?
Bm
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
G Em
And a fox became God
Bm
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
G Em
And the cross was held aloft
G
Bury me an armour
A
When I&rsquo m dead and hit the ground
Bm A
My nerves are poles that unfroze
G F#m D Bm A Bm
If you love me, won&rsquo t you let me know?
Bm G Em
(don' t forget about the capo thing...it' s 2 step higher so if you play without a capo, 3
a 5, 2 is a 7, etc...)
G
I don&rsquo t want to be a soldier
A
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Bm
Would stow
A
Far below
G F#m D Bm A Bm
So, if you love me, why&rsquo d you let me go?
D G D Bm A G
I took my love down to Violet Hill
A Bm F#m G
There we sat in the snow
G A Bm Em D Bm A
All that time she was silent still
F#m G F#m D Bm A G
Said if you love me, won&rsquo t you let me know?
F#m G F#m D Bm A Bm
If you love me, won&rsquo t you let me know?
