Verse
Emaj
When Winter falls
C#m Fadd9
Next year, I'll be holding on
C#m
To anything nailed down
Emaj C#m
As for being patient, with fate
Fadd9
and all, it's getting old.
C#m
And my mind is slowly changing
Emaj
I'm calling all my oldest friends,
C#m
Saying "sorry for this mess we're in,"
Fadd9 C#m
And I'm waiting, waiting
Emaj
For the Sun to come and melt this snow,
C#m Fadd9 C#m
wash away the pain, and give me back control, control.
CHORUS:
Emaj
An angel got his wings,
C#m Fadd9 C#m
And we'll hold our heads up knowing that he's fine.
Emaj7 C#m
We'd all be lucky to have a love like that in a lifetime.
VERSE TWO:
Emaj
Should we still set his plate?
C#m
Should we still save his chair?
Fadd9
Should we still buy him gifts?
C#m
And if we don't, did we not care?
Emaj
It makes you think about the life you've led,
C#m
Shit you've done, things you've said.
Fadd9 C#m
And it's grounding, grounding.
Emaj
I've been feeling three feet tall this month,
C#m
hardly indestructible.
Fadd9 C#m
But the snow melts, and the rhythm still goes on.
CHORUS:
Emaj
An angel got his wings,
C#m Fadd9 C#m
And we'll hold our heads up knowing that he's fine.
Emaj7 C#m
We'd all be lucky to have a love like that in a lifetime.
Emaj
Friends stay side by side,'
C#m Fadd9 C#m
In life and death you've always stole my heart,
Emaj7
You'll always mean so much to me,
C#m Emaj
it's hard to believe this
BRIDGE:
Fadd9 E
These nights in vans,
Fadd9 E
These nights in bars,

Don't mean a thing with empty hearts, with empty hearts.

So much to me, it's hard to believe this.
