[VERSE] 6/4 time, hemiola in harmony (melody counts a waltz, harmony counts duple time)
Gm                 Eb           Bb
Far away there's a land of snow   and sorrow
Gm                             Eb             Cm               Gm
Time has made the frozen tears fall like rain from the starlit sky
              Eb                 Bb
And I feel so cold, I can't make it tomorrow
Gm                        Eb                 Cm           Gm
Oh, but the night will see   where this path will lead my life
                              Eb                Bb
Endless fields of snow at the edge of the world and the wailing
Gm                 Eb            Cm          Gm
winds so cold will scar my face. I'm going insane
                          Eb           Bb
I am lost from the light
          And the memories   follow me in the night
    Gm                         
I'm left in the arms of winter
Eb             Cm      Gm
  I am carried   far away

Night is falling over my home
    Gm               Dm      Eb        F            Dm  
The land of snow and sorrow, carry me away from the cold
   Gm      Am7b5/C        Bb            Dm
As I fall asleep,  I will dream my last dream
      Cm        Gm   Dm   Eb        F     Gm  
All I wanted is gone now; sorrow is all I feel

The land of snow and sorrow, carry me away from the cold
   Gm      Am7b5/C          Bb      Dm
As I fall asleep and I will not be afraid
      Cm        Gm   Dm   Eb        F     Gm  
All I wanted is gone now; sorrow is all I feel
