G
One day, 
    D                Em   D
The snow began to fall, 
    C       G
And slowly, inch by inch, 
Am             D
Covered up the earth. 
     G
'Til finally, 
    D                  Em       D
The top of the tallest building, 
    C              G
Was lost beneath a powdered sea, 
   Am                  D
As quiet as a shadow's grave. 


[Verse]
       G            D           C
And we say that the world isn't dying. 
       G             D           C
And we pray that the world isn't dying. 
    G              D           C
And just maybe the world isn't dying. 
Am          D          G       D
Maybe she's heavy with child. 


[Chorus]
G
One night, 
  D             Em     D
A woman took my hand. 
  C                G
I left my home and followed her 
  Am         D 
Into an icy field. 
       G            D
When I wanted to go back, 
                 Em    D
I'd lost the way. 
       C              G
So she beckoned me to lie beneath 
    Am                        D
The stone that always bore my name. 


[Chorus]
       G            D           C
And we say that the world isn't dying. 
       G             D           C
And we pray that the world isn't dying. 
    G              D           C
And just maybe the world isn't dying. 
Am          D          G       D
Maybe she's heavy with child. 


[Verse]
G
One morning, 
   D             Em      D
We woke up in an alley. 
       C               G
To the smell of urine, alcohol, 
Am            D
Trash and gasoline, 
       G               D
With a dim sense of a notion 
          Em               D
We'd held something in our hands, 
         C           G
That was bigger than us or God, 
    Am                   D 
And we can never touch again. 


[Chorus]
       G            D           C
And we say that the world isn't dying. 
       G             D           C
And we pray that the world isn't dying. 
    G              D           C
And just maybe the world isn't dying. 
Am          D          G       D
Maybe she's heavy with child. 
          C              D              Em
I've been looking at the symptoms for a while, 
C           D          G
Maybe she's heavy with child.
