Intro:  Riff 1 [X2]

< Verse >

[Riff 1]                                  [Riff 1]
Another year went by, oh I need this time
[Riff 1]                                              [Riff 1]
To unravel like these lights, that I'll hang outside
[Riff 1]                                              [Riff 1] 
We made it through just fine, though a part has died
[Riff 1]                                                           [Riff 1]
But up from it's ashes grew a tree, with a star that lit the night
 
< Chorus >
       Cadd9                     Em7        A7sus4
I will lie in the snow, and melt all of the cold
         Cadd9    Em7       A7sus4     A7sus4 - Em7
With the bur-ning fire in my soul
        Cadd9    Em7         A7sus4             Em7   
Because, nothing turns me to stone, cold as the winter is
   Cadd9    Em7      A7sus4      Em7    G/Gb    [Riff 1] X2
It makes me feel all right, each Christ-mas...  time

< Verse >

[Riff 1]                                                      [Riff 1]
And I'll count the photos in the hallway of my family that have past
[Riff 1]                                                                    [Riff 1]
And the stories, through the evening, keep the smiling, hurts less if we can laugh

< Chorus >
       Cadd9                     Em7        A7sus4
I will lie in the snow, and melt all of the cold
         Cadd9    Em7       A7sus4     A7sus4 - Em7
With the bur-ning fire in my soul
        Cadd9    Em7         A7sus4             Em7   
Because, nothing turns me to stone, cold as the winter is
   Cadd9    Em7      A7sus4      Em7    G/Gb    [Riff 3... see bridge]
It makes me feel all right, each Christ-mas...  time
