A Cold Night Close To The End

Chords

G-Tuning (Baritone)

C
Be sure to be quiet

In the middle of the night,
          F
When the dogs are asleep and

The wind is high.
           C
Grab out things and wait

by the window,
                       E
I'll meet you by the window.


           F
And we'll make no tracks
        G
In the snow.
        C          E
We'll follow the lakes to where the
 Am                   F
Cold north wind will
              G
Cover for us both
   C
So we can hide.

F            G
And if we survive
     C              E
The cold, and the night
        Am             F
In the dead of winter,
                     G
We'll watch the sun rise on the ice
     C
Together

F                 G
And if we are to die tonight,
         C         E
In your arms I'll lay,
        Am               F
And it never felt better;
                      G
And at least we will leave here
   C 
Together.


La da da da... [F G C E Am F G C] x2


F                    G
In the still of the night
    C                E
My bare hands, your pale skin
   Am                        F
Reflected in the moonlight.
                    G
And we pray and we pray
        C
To the wind.
     F            G
And your hand in my hand's
    C           E
As soft as the sunlight 
         Am            F
When the day begins,
                     G
And as cold as the night
       C 
Blows in.



F                 G
And if we are to die tonight,
   C            E
I pray with my heart
               Am               
That you will love me forever
F                     G
And at least we will leave here
   C 
Together.
