Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

( )

Please don't lie, don't lie to me that you're not afraid, my love.

I know you well enough to know you can't be alone.

If you were to roll, to roll down your window, you'd find

the wind, the ice, the trees that sway like skeletons outside.

Chorus

But when the cold, the dark, and the silence come

it's like a sudden rush of water through your heart and lungs. +

Verse 2

Please don't fight, don't fight with me and fold your arms like it's the end.

Can you smell the sweetness of the soil and snow in the wind?

So we're lost, we're lost out here on the plains, my love.

It's only wind and ice and trees that wave from above.

Chorus 2x

Bridge

(Just play the intro 2x)

Don't lie

Don't cry

It's over

It's only the leaves, the trees

I'll never leave you alone

In this car

In the dark, with the air getting so much colder.

It's so clear outside here, in the moon and winter air.

But when the cold, the dark, and the silence come

it's like a sudden rush of water through your heart and lungs.

When the cold, the dark, and the silence come

it's like a sudden rush of water

it's like a sudden rush of water

it's like a sudden rush of water through your heart and lungs.

The cold, the dark and the silence.

The cold, the dark and the silence.

The cold, the dark and the silence.

The cold, the dark and the silence.

The cold, the dark and the silence.

The cold, the dark and the silence...
