[Verse 1]
 GLend me your walking Dstick
 And I lean on Cit
 And I walk on Amout through the Csnow bound Gyard
 GPast the neighbours on the Dlawn
 Drinking last year Cout
 I leave this Amtown, cut the Cyear off Gclear
 GCauterized by Dleaving
 Sick and tired of Cliving last yearAm  C  
 GRoll out the Dtarmac and baptize the air Ccraft
 Escaping loss aAmnd push me offC  
[Verse 2]
 GThe cold can bleach us Dout
 And freeze our Cdoubt
 And all that you Amknew becomes Cmuffled and Gmute
 GBut I'm done with Dit
 All this standing Cstiff
 When I move my Ammouth only Csnow comes Gout
 GEuthanized by Dwhiteness
 But I'll arise Cdespite this last yearAm  C  
 GSo roll out the Dtarmac and baptize the Caircraft
 CEscaping loss and Ampush me offC  
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
 GShould old acquaintance Dbe forgot
 And Emnever brought to Cmind
 GShould acquaintance be Dforgot
 And Emauld Clang Gsyne
 GFor auld lang Dsyne, my dear
 For Emauld lang Csyne
 GWe'll take a cup of Dkindness yet
 For Emauld Clang Gsyne
 GFor auld lang Dsyne, my dear
 For Emauld lang Csyne
 GWe'll take a cup of Dkindness yet
 For Emauld Clang Gsyne

Past the neighbours on the lawn

Drinking last year out

Am C G

I leave this town, cut the year off clear

Cauterized by leaving

C Am C

Sick and tired of living last year

G D C

Roll out the tarmac and baptize the air craft

The cold can bleach us out

And freeze our doubt

Am C G

And all that you knew becomes muffled and mute

But I'm done with it

All this standing stiff

When I move my mouth only snow comes out

Euthanized by whiteness

But I'll arise despite this last year

So roll out the tarmac and baptize the aircraft

C Am C

Escaping loss and push me off
