Em D6/F# Em D6/F# A7/C# C6
(this phrase 2 times)
[Verse 1]
Em D6/F# Em D6/F#
Now the time has come to speak
A7/C# C6
I was not able
Em D6/F# Em D6/F#
And water through a rusted pipe
A7/C# C6
Could make the sense that i do
Em D6/F#
Gurgle, mutter
Em D6/F#
Hiss, stutter
A7/C#
Moan the words like water
C6
Rush and foam and choke
Em
Having waited
D6/F# Em
This long of a winter
D6/F# A7/C#
I fear i only
C6
Croak and sigh
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am F/A ou F/C
(this phrase 2 times)
Am G/A Am F/A
Somewhere deep within
Am
Hear the creak
G/A Am F/C
That lets the tale begin
(Repeat lyrics 1 time)
[Verse 2]
Em D6/F# Em D6/F#
Now the time has come to move
A7/C# C6
I was not able
Em D6/F# Em D6/F#
Water through a rusted pipe
A7/C# C6
Could make the moves that i do
Em D6/F#
Stagger, stumble
Em D6/F#
Trip, fumble
A7/C#
Creep like a tinkle
C6
Freezing coffin grip
Em
Having waited
D6/F# Em
This long of a winter
D6/F# A7/C#
I fear i only
C6
Slip and slide
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am F/A ou F/C
(This phrase 2 times)
Am G/A Am F/A
Somewhere deep within
Am
Hear the creak
G/A Am F/C
That lets the tale begin
