Capo on 6th fret

Am G C

At night my body aches

G D Em

for your warmth under the sheets

Am G C

I ached myself awake

G D B7

and opened the window

Am G C

I got a bucket-full in the face

G D Em

the snow came down in sheets

Am G C

I had to have a taste

G D B7

of some that gathered on the sill

E7 Am D G C

Do what you will

E7 Am D G C

to make you feel

E7 Am D G C

'cos life is dull as sin most of the time

Em Am

take your chances now

Am G C

The horizons black with smoke

G D Em

they say there is no hope

Am G C

this is the coming of the lord

G D B7

but he's not got to us yet

Am G C

so maybe I should read a book

G D Em

or cover my face with soot

Am G C

or I could kiss you on the mouth

G D B7

I've always wanted to do that

E7 Am D G C

Do what you will

E7 Am D G C

to make you feel

E7 Am D G C

'cos life is dull as sin most of the time

Em Am

take your chances now

E7 Am D G C

Do what you will

E7 Am D G C

to make you feel

E7 Am D G C

'cos life is dull as sin most of the time

Em Am

take your chances
