[D#] [D#m] [C#] [F#]
[D#m] [C#] [F#]
[D#m] Go on, [C#] stack the cinder [F#] blocks in a cold sweat
[D#m] Build [C#] yourself a citadel [F#] amid the foothills of regret
[D#m] And oh, [C#] you've convinced yourself [F#] you're safe and sound within
[D#m] The thing you [C#] fear the most, never [F#] need get in
Cause you'll [G] miss the [D#m] sun, [C#] the [F#] warmth of another's embrace
You'll need [D#m] room to run [C#] and [F#] something to chase
And that [D#m] thing you fear will [C#] cause you out [F#] of that unholy place
[D#m] Cause all you've [C#] ever wanted is an [F#] escape
[D#m] Rose of [C#] ice, who vowed never [D#m] to love [C#] again, to love [B] again
A making [C#] liar's arrow on [F#] his head
[D#m] It's not something that [F#] you put to bed
[B] Hang [F#] your head and just forget
[D#m] No love, don't [F#] know how it ends
[D#m] No love, don't [C#] know how [F#] it ends
[D#m] [C#] [D#m] [C#]
[B] [C#] [F#] But when [D#m] you've tired, [C#] you [F#] will see
There [D#m] is no safe place, [C#] no sanctuary
[F#] It's not [D#m] just child's play, [C#] a game of [F#] hide and seek
[D#m] Don't make [F#] it harder than it has to be
[D#m] Rose of [C#] ice, who vowed never [D#m] to love again, [C#] to love [B] again
A making [C#] liar's arrow on [F#] his head
It's [D#m] not something that [F#] you put [C#] to bed
[B] Hang [F#] your head and just forget
[D#m] No love, don't [C#] know [F#] how it ends
No [D#m] love, don't [C#] know how it [F#] ends
[D#m] [C#] [D#m] [C#]
[B] [C#] [F#]
[D#m] Here's the [C#] truest thing I've ever [F#] known
[D#m] The heart is [C#] just a muscle [F#] with a rhythm all its own
It doesn't stop [C#] when you decide not to [F#] move on
The heart [D#m] knows nothing of [F#] your love or of your loss
[D#m] So life just keeps [C#] on ticking by
[F#] Compelled by instinct to survive
[D#m] And love's the only [C#] thing worth being [F#] alive for
[D#m] And love's the only [C#] thing worth [F#] being alive for
[D#m] Rose of [C#] ice, who vowed never [D#m] to love again, [C#] to love again
[B] A making [C#] liar's arrow on [F#] his head
It's [D#m] not something that [F#] you put to bed
[B] Hang [F#] your head and just forget
[D#m] No love, don't [C#] know how it [F#] ends
No [D#m] love, don't [F#] know [C#] how it [F#] ends
[D#m] [C#] [D#m] [C#]
[B] [C#] [F#]
[D#m] [C#] [F#]
