VERSE
D G
Welcome back, winter once again,
A
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater
Bm G
Cuz you'll feel much better...when,
D G
The snowflakes fall, gently to the ground.
A
The temperature drops and your shivers
Bm G
Freeze all the rivers around...
PRECHORUS
But I keep you warm
G A Bm

VERSE - same chords/progression as 1st verse
If speed's a pro, Inertia must be a con
Cuz the cold wind blows at precise rates
When I've got my ice skates on
If all the roads were paved with ice that wouldn't thaw or crack
I could skate from Maine to Nebraska
then on to Alaska, and back
Cuz you keep me warm
PRECHORUS
Da da da............

CHORUS
G A Bm
Peer over the edge. Can you see me?
G A Bm
Rivulets flow from your eyes
G A Bm
Paint runs from your mouth like a waterfall
G D A
And your lungs crystalize.
G A Bm
I'll travel the sub-zero tundra
G A Bm
I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes
G A Bm
And that's just the tip of the iceberg
G D A
I'll do whatever it takes
To change...
Ah ah aaaahhhhh....

A D G
Farewell powdery paradise
A D G
We'd rather skate on the thinnest ice
A D G
Fingers failed us before they froze
A D G
Frostbite bit down on all our toes
G A Bm
Snow drifts build up and enfold us
G A Bm
As we wait out this winter storm
G A Bm
So we snuggle close in the darkness
G D A D
And keep each other soooooo.... warm
