Em  

          Am                        Em        Am             Em            Am       

And I cry and no one can hear. Inhale. The blinded eyes that see the chaos.  Bring the  

             Em                             Am                Em                                      Am 

pitiful to me.  Even though I’m wide awake, I will.  And blackest night and I wait for  

D/F#       Em                        D/F#               Am          D/F#        Em 

you.  It’s cold in here there’s no one left and I wait for you.  And nothing stops it  

D/F#              Am D/F#    Em                D/F# 

happening and I knew I’d cherish all my misery alone. 

*play Riff 1, and then add... 

Riff 3 







(repeat throughout Chorus) 

And I wait, staring at the northern star, I’m afraid it won’t lead me anywhere.  he’s so 

cold, he will ruin the world tonight, all the angels kneel into the northern lights; kneel 

into the frozen lights 


*play Riff 2 to end Chorus* 

Em   

        Am                             Em               Am 

And they paid, I cry and cry for you.  Ghosts that haunt you with their sorrow, I cried  

                          Em                                                Am  Em 

couse you were doomed, praying to the wound that swallows all that’s cold and cruel can  


      Am          Em                           Am        D/F#      Em                      D/F# 

you see the trees charity and gratitude they run to the pines its black in here blot out the  

            Am           D/F#      Em             D/F#                  Am D/F#    Em            D/F# 

sun and run to the pines our misery runs wild and free and I knew the fire and the ashes  


of his grace. 


*Riff 1 and 3* (Riff1 and 3=Chorus) 

And I wait, staring at the northern star, I’m afraid it won’t lead you very far he’s so cold, 

he will win the world tonight all the angels kneel into the frozen lights.  Feel their hearts, 

they’re cold and white. 

*play Riff 2* 


Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am D/F#  Em D/F#  Am D/F#  G E 


       Am                  Em                   D/F#            Am  D/F#   Em                D/F# 

And I want you and blessed are the broken and I beg you no loneliness, no misery is  

Am    D/F#     Em                     D/F#  

worth you, oh tear his heart out cold as ice it’s mine. 

*play riff 1 and 3 throughout Chorus* 

 And I wait, praying to the northern star I’m afraid it won’t lead you anywhere.  He’s so 

cold, raining on the world tonight all the angels kneeling to the northern lights and I pray 

begging to the northern star, I’m afraid it won’t lead you anywhere, he’s so cold, he will 

rule the world tonight all the angels kneeling to the northern lights, kneeling to the frozen 

lights. 

*play Riff 1* 

*play riff 1 through next stanza* 

Feel their hearts, they’re cold as ice.
