[Verse 1]
[G]When the baby's bor[D]n
Oh, let's [G]turn it to [D]the snow
So that [Em]ice will surely [D]grow
Over [Em]weak and brittle [D]bones

[Verse 2]
Oh, let's [G]leave it to the [D]wolves
So their [G]teeth turn it to [D]food
Oh, its [Em]flesh keeps them [D]alive
Oh, its [Em]death helps life sur[D]vive
Oh, the [Em]world can be [B]kind in its

[G][D]

[Verse 3]
Oh well, your [G]future's a [D]machine
With the mech[G]anics of a [D]dream
And it's your [Em]mind that spins the [D]wheel
And your [Em]heart that makes you [D]feel

[Verse 4]
All the [G]guilt for all your [D]sins
Oh, [G]as that wheel [D]spins

[D]And for your hus[Em]band you have gri[D]eved

Oh, and the [C]moon controls the

Oh, but it [Em]has no weight on the
movements of my [D]mind

[Verse 6]
[D]
But if you [G]turn your hands to [D]flames
[G]Oh, the light will burn the [D]same
Wheth[G]er you just pass [D]it through
Or if it's what you [G]meant [D]to do

Is from the [C]Gods that you [G]perceive
Their constant [C]lies that you believe
[G]Will show you[Am] grace
Oh, when you turn to a [D]ghost

[Verse 8]
Oh, but [C]now the love you [G]found
Just lays you [C]down on the muddy [G]ground
And oh, the [C]death will let you [G]down
'Cause your [Am]verse will still go on the [D]same
