_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
I run [Bbm] off where the [Ab] drifts get [Ab] _ deeper _
[Ebm] _ _ Sleeping _ [Eb] beauty [B] trips me with a [Eb] frown _
I [Ebm] _ hear [F] a voice, you [Gb] must learn to [Ab] _ [Eb] stand up

[F] around

[F] Flowers _ _ [B] competing for the [Eb] sun
_ [Ebm] _ _
Years go [Bbm] by and I'm [Ab] here still [Ab] _ waiting
_ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [Bbm] Withering where some [B] _ snowman [Eb] _ _ was _
[Ebm] _ _ Mirror, [Bbm] mirror, where's the [Ab] crystal _ _ [Ab] _ palace
[Ebm] _ _ But I [Bbm] only can see _ [Ab] _ myself _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ Skating _ [Bbm]
around [B] the truth [Ab] who _ I [Eb] am
_ [Bbm] But I know _ dad, [B] the ice is getting [Eb] thin
_ _ _ When _ _ _
[Gb] you gonna make up your _ [Ebm] mind
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _

_ [B] is grey [Gb] and the _ fires [Ab] are burning
[Eb] _ _
So [B] many _ dreams _ on the _ [Eb] shelf _ _ _
You [B] say I wanted [Gb]
you to [Ab] be proud of me
[Eb] _ I [B] always _ _ wanted that _ _ _ myself
[Eb] _ _ When _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [Gb] you gonna make up your [Ebm] _ mind
_ [B] _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ When you gonna love you as [Eb] much _ [B] as I do
