'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again
D
This might be the coldest winter since records began
Em D
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
Em D
Leading the children softly across the fold
(same as verse 1) :)
In the morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school
'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark
Em D
But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail
Em D
There's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem
Em D
And you say 'my love, you take the cards that you're dealt'
Em D
And when it's dark outside, you light the fire yourself
G
Darling when the ice caps melt
G
When the devils in the bible belt
G D
Don't you cower in your bed
G
I'll be at the five-four-five
G
You can meet me at the railway line
G D
Don't look so scared
Em D
'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk
G D
And the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore
Em D
Oh, the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore x2
