[Verse 1]
F#m
We are ruled by a governing frost
A                        C#
It melts beneath alcohol briefly and then bites back
F#m
Breathe on panes of glass
A                       C#
A circle appears before freezing again, aha
F#m
And it's taking it's time
Bm         A
Decree by reluctant
C#
Decree in night by night

[Chorus]
A    Bm    C#                      D         A
Snow still melting, and doesn't it take it's time?

[Verse 2]
F#m
We are ruled by a governing frost
        A                            C#
It's as thin as a wedding veil, too heavy to lift for a kiss
F#m
And a kiss brings warmth
D              A         C#
But not nearly enough to finish the thaw
F#m
Call spring from 6 months in clothes
               D     A              C#
This calls for bold, naked honesty, petrol, a match, and a torch

B                  C#          F#m        D         A
This snow is still melting and doesn't it take it's time?
B                  C#          F#m        D         A
To lost almost all feeling, jesus, didn't that take awhile?
B  C#      F#m      D     A
Ohh, ohhh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
B  C#      F#m      D     A
Ohh, ohhh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

[Outro]
F#m                                               D     A  C#
Well, the snow may have melted but it covered all kinds of dirt
F#m                                               D     A  C#
Can take one brush east, start sweeping and we'll clear this up
F#m                                               D     A  C#
All the snow may have melted, but it covered all kinds of hurt
F#m                                                 D     A   C#
If we take one brush east, start sweeping and we'll clear this up
F#m
Clear this up
