One day,
DEmEm7
The snow began to fall,
CEm7
And slowly, inch by inch,
AmD
Covered up the earth.
G
'Til finally,
DEmEm7
The top of the tallest building,
CEm7
Was lost beneath a powdered sea,
AmD
As quiet as a shadow's grave.
GDC
And we say that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
AmDGD
Maybe she's heavy with child.
G
One night,
DEmEm7
A woman took my hand.
CEm7
I left my home and followed her
AmD
Into an icy field.
GD
When I wanted to go back,
EmEm7
I'd lost the way.
CEm7
So she beckoned me to lie beneath
AmD
The stone that always bore my name.
GDC
And we say that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
AmDGD
Maybe she's heavy with child.
G
One morning,
DEmEm7
We woke up in an alley.
CEm7
To the smell of urine, alcohol,
AmD
Trash and gasoline,
GD
With a dim sense of a notion
EmEm7
We'd held something in our hands,
CEm7
That was bigger than us or God,
AmD
And we can never touch again.
GDC
And we say that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And we pray that the world isn't dying.
GDC
And just maybe the world isn't dying.
AmDGD
Maybe she's heavy with child.
CDEm
I've been looking at the symptoms for a while,
CDG
Maybe she's heavy with child.
