Well [D] there's a difference in the way that you kiss me
[G] There's a sadness in your eyes that [D] you can't hide
Why [A] do you tremble when [D] I hold you?
[E] I wonder if you feel the same
I [A] felt the chill before the winter came
[D] But it's easy to say that I won't give in again
I [G] was just tempted for a moment [D] and a half
But it's [A] so easy when you love [D] to lose control
[E] Now look here if you will [A] at the faithful man you stole
I [G] felt the chill before [D] the winter came
Suffered [G] the guilt and [D] then accepted [A] the blame
[G]
I wanted you [A]
before you ever spoke [D] my name
But [E] I knew [Em] that we would go [A] wrong
Just [F#m] as they do in all of those tragic [Bm] songs
[G] Did that man leave you on your mind?
[Em] Just like a lingering upper field
[E] Now you're in someone else's arms
[A] Locked up in [G]
another [A] room
Is [D] there a difference in the way that he loves you?
[G] Is there still sadness in your eyes you [D] can't deny?
Do [A] you tremble [D] inside when he holds you just like I do?
[E] What were you thinking of?
[A] Is there a way I love?
[D] And it's easy to say that you won't give in again
You [G] were just tempted for a moment [D] and a half
But [A] it's so hard when you desire [D] to lose control
[E] I don't know what this feeling is
[A] But I sure know it seems cold
I [G] felt the chill [D] before the winter came
[G] Suffered the pain [D] and then accepted [A] the shame
[G] I will have lost your love [A] by the end of this [D] sad refrain
I [G] felt the cold [D] creep over my skin
[G] Still is the air [D] until the wind [A] rushed in
[G] Still in control
[Em] Holding on to my heart and soul
[A] Only inches [D] from sin
