A E A E
Froze to the bone in my igloo home
A E A E A E A E
Counting the days 'til the ice turns green
A E A E
You know when Heaven and hell collide
A E A E A E
There are no in-betweens
Chorus:
C E C E
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
C E C E C (E)
Cold as the wind that blows through my headstone
Break: Bb C Em (3x) D Bm (3X)
Collecting the bones of my friends tonight
Sowing the seeds in a fruitless land
You know when prayers all hit the ground
There is no higher hand
Chorus
I'm the yo-yo man, always up and down
So take me to the end of your tether
Chorus, Break and fade
