Intro
E     A2     C#m  B  A2

VERSE 1
E                                A2
It's always nice to look out the window
E                                      A2
And see those very first few flakes of snow
C#m                      A2 
And later on we can go outside
    C#m                         B            A2               
And create the impression of an angel that just fell from the sky

VERSE 2
     F#m            E           B       
When February rolls around I'll roll my eyes
F#m                           E     B       
Turn a cold shoulder to these even colder skies
F#m                E      B          A2    
And by the fire my heart it heaves a sigh
(hold A2)
For the green grass waiting on the other side

CHORUS
E                      A2
It's always winter but never Christmas
F#m                       A2      B
It seems this curse just can't be lifted
    E                        A2
Yet in the midst of all this ice and snow
F#m                        B        A2          E (ring out)
Our hearts stay warm cause they are filled with hope


VERSE 3
E                               A2
It'd be so nice to look out the window
     E                                   A2
And see the leaves on the trees begin to show
    C#m                        A2
The birds would congregate and sing
C#m       B           A2
A song of birth a song of newer things

VERSE 4
F#m                         E         B
The wind would calm and the sun would shine
F#m                    E         B
I'd go outside and I'd squint my eyes
F#m                E       B       A2
But for now I will simply just withdraw
(hold A2)
Sit here and wish for this world to thaw

CHORUS
E                      A2
It's always winter but never Christmas
F#m                       A2      B
It seems this curse just can't be lifted
    E                        A2
Yet in the midst of all this ice and snow
F#m                        B        A2          E (ring out)
Our hearts stay warm cause they are filled with hope

BRIDGE
A2                E
And everything it changed overnight
C#m                  B                  A2
This dying world you brought it back to life
           E
And deep inside I felt things
C#m                     B
Shifting everything was melting
A2       B
Away oh away
C#m                      B            A2
And you gave us the most beautiful of days

CHORUS 2
E                                       A2
Cause when it's always winter but never Christmas
F#m                     A2         B	
Sometimes it feels like you're not with us
E                   A2
But deep inside our hearts we know
F#m                   B       A2       E
That you are here and we will not lose hope
