INTRO: G


On a midnight survey of the town

No place special, just around
    C                                     G
The snow fell down like feathers from the sky



And all the good people were in their beds

With the reading lamps on overhead
        C                           G
And the curtains drawn against the night


CHORUS:
F          G
Quiet now, softly now
F               G   F   G   F   G
Careful how you go



House to house to garden gate

People waiting on buses, that left too late
C                                        G
Too late now, they're wishing they were home



It gets slippery here, so watch your step

We don't wanna break the spell just yet
    C                             G
The ice is thin, but maybe it'll hold


CHORUS:
F          G
Quiet now, softly now
F               G
Careful how you go


CHORUS:
F          G
Quiet now, softly now
F               G   
Careful how you go


            Bm      Em    C
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
D  G      D  G
Ah ha     ah ha     
Em  G/F# G   D   C
Ooh ooh  ooh ooh ooh

On a midnight survey of the town

No place special, just around
    C                                     G
The snow fell down like feathers from the sky



Oh, and all the good people were in their beds

With the reading lamps on overhead
        C                           G
And the curtains drawn against the night


CHORUS:

Careful how you go

F               G 
Careful how you go
