≣≣
Capo on 2nd fret
[Verse1]
 
Was a [Bm]long and dark December
 
From the rooftops I remember
There was [G]snow, white [Em]snow
Cl[Bm]Clearly I remember from the windows
They were watching while we [G]froze
Down bel[Em]below
 
 
[Chorus]
 
When the f[G]future's architectured
By a [A]carnival of idiots on [Bm]show
You'd better lie [A]low
If you [G]love [F#m]me, [D]won’t you [Bm]let [A]me [Bm]know?
 
 
[Verse2]
 
Was a [Bm]long and dark December
 
When the banks became cathedrals
And a [G]fox became [Em]God
P[Bm]Priests clutched onto bibles
 
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the c[G]cross was held [Em]aloft
 
 
[Chorus]
 
[G]Bury me an armour
When I’m [A]dead and hit the ground
My nerves are [Bm]poles that unf[A]unfroze
If you [G]love [F#m]me, [D]won’t you [Bm]let [A]me [Bm]know?
 
 
[Solo]
 
[Bm] [Bm] [G] [Em] [x2]
(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...)

(the last chord is played the
second time only, and the first
time, you just return to beginning of the solo...)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
I don’t [G]want to be a soldier
Who the[A]the captain of some sinking ship
Would[Bm]Would stow
Far [A]below
So, if you [G]love [F#m]me, [D]why’d you [Bm]let [A]me [Bm]go?
 
 
[Outro]
 
I took my [D]love [G]down to [D]Vio[Bm]Violet [A]Hill [G]
[A]There we [Bm]sat [F#m]in the [G]snow
[G]All [A]that [Bm]time [Em]she was [D]sil[Bm]silent [A]still
Said[F#m]Said if you [G]love [F#m]me, [D]won’t you [Bm]let [A]me [G]know?
[F#m]If you lov[G]e me[F#m], wo[D]n’t you le[Bm]t me[A] kn[Bm]ow?
