  EBeen living under frozen sAky
  EBut we've all got ways that we get Aby
You changed your C#mname
The one you Ehad it didn't Afit right
And I know you'd C#mdream of something Eelse
If you could sleep Anights
[Chorus 1]
I Eknow so tonight I'll stay here with Byou
There's nothing else I'd rather C#mdo
We'll look for reasons for why we're Ahere
We'll blame the season for this Efear
I'll say that everything'll work Bout
Like I know what I'm talking aC#mbout
But all this snow keeps piling Aup
We dig it's Anever deep enough
[Verse 2]
  EJust need a change in atmosAphere
  EIt's like winter's earlier each Ayear
  ESidewalks across this town
Are Aicing up we're sliding down
  ELook for a place to drown
find a Abar a block a way
You're just a C#mkid bruising Eup
If I could Atell you
How many C#mtimes you gotta Efall
Before you Abreak through
[Chorus 2]
I Ewould so tonight I'll stay here with Byou
There's nothing else I'd rather C#mdo
We'll look for reasons for why we're Ahere
We'll blame the season for this Efear
I'll say that everything'll work Bout
Like I know what I'm talking aC#mbout
But all this snow keeps piling Aup
We dig it's Anever deep enough

C#mCold drinks and sBnow falls
I'll Apick up your phone calls
I C#mget too wrapped Bup in my own Ashit
We order Aone more round and sit
[Chorus 3]
  EAnd I know when you're
living under Bsheets of snow
It can look like the C#mworld's gone black
But remember that the Asun comes back
  AAt least they say it does
  EAnd I know when you're
living under Bsheets of snow
It can look like the C#mworld's gone black
But remember that the Asun comes back
  AAt least they say it does
  EAnd I know when you're
living under Bsheets of snow
It can look like the C#mworld's gone black
But remember that the Asun comes back
  AAt least they say it Edoes

But remember that the sun comes back

A E

At least they say it does
