Was a long and dark De ber, from the roof tops I re ber, there was (Bb)snow,

(Dm)Clear ly I re mem ber from the win dows they were watch ing, while we (Bb)froze,

down be (Gm)low.

When the fu ture’s ar chi tured by a car ni val of i di ots on (Dm)show,

you’d bet ter lie (C)low.

(Am)If you (Bb)love (Am)me, (F)won’t you (Dm)let (C)me know?

I took my (Dm)love (Gm)down to (F)Vio (Dm)let Hill,
