       C#m
Was a long and dark December
                        B
From the rooftops, I remember
            A           F#m    (Riff 1)
There was snow, white snow

C#m
Clearly I remember
                             B
From the windows, they were watching
           A           F#m     (Riff 1)
While we froze down below

          A
When the future's architectured
      B                      C#m
By a carnival of idiots on show
                  B
You'd better lie low


G#m     A    G#m
If you love me
 E         C#m B   C#m
Won't you let me know?

C#m
Was a long and dark December
                          B
When the banks became cathedrals
       A          F#m      (Riff 1)
And a fox became God

C#m
Priests clutched onto bibles
                           B
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
        A              F#m    (Riff 1)
And a cross was held aloft

 A
Bury me in armour
          B
When I'm dead and hit the ground
               C#m           B
My nerves are poles that unfroze


   G#m      A    G#m
And if you love me
 E         C#m  B  C#m
Won't you let me know?

         A
I don't want to be a soldier
          B
with the captain of some sinking ship
       C#m        B
with stow, far below


   G#m     A    G#m
So if you love me
  E       C#m  B  C#m
Why'd you let me go?

  I took my love down to the violet  hill
  B      C#m G#m  A
There we sat in snow
B         C#m   F#m    E  C#m  B
All that time she was silent still
   G#m      A   G#m  E        C#m  B   A
So, if you love me, won't you let me know?
G#m     A   G#m  E         C#m  B  C#m
If you love me, won't you let me know?
