[A] [G] [F]
[C] We're [Am] not [D] the same, dear, [Bb] as [Dm] we [F] used to [C] be [A] The seasons [G] have changed, [F] and so [D] have we
There [Am] was little we could [D] say, and [F] even less that we [C] could do
To [A] stop the ice from getting [G] thinner under [F] me [C] and you
We [Am] buried our [D] love in a [F] wintry [C] grave, [Am] alone in [G] the snow
Was [F] all that [D] remained, [A] but we stayed by its side
As [F] the days turned to [C] weeks, [Am] and the ice kept getting [G] thinner
With [F] every word [C] we'd speak, and [F] when spring
[C] arrived
We [F] were taken by [A] surprise when the [Dm] flows under our [G] feet
[C] Bled into [F] the sea, [G] and nothing was left for you and [A] me

[Am] We're not [D] the same, dear, and [F] it seems to [C] me
[Am] There's nowhere we [G] can go, with [F] nothing [Gm] underneath
And [Am] it saddens me to [D] say, what [F] we both knew [C] was true
[A] That the ice was getting [G] thinner under [Cm] me [F] [C] and you
[Am] The ice was [G] getting thinner under [F] me [C]
