You're my winter queen that disappeared. Your hands grew cold.
    G                  D
You ran a mile from my ways
                      Am
I still heard you had full flown view, with lots of time
             G           Bm
And notebook full of the finest, creamy, rich girl parchment pages 
                                    E
Slowly filled with all your passing days

Every sacred word paints a picture

Bigger were his muscles, and farther go his dollars
