[Intro]
A/C# B6 Bm A6
D6 Bm7 E F#7

[Verse 1]
A/C# G#m/B
Mercury falling
Bm F#m/A
I rise from my bed
Bm/D Bm7
Collect my thoughts together
E F#7
I have to hold my head
A/C# G#m/B
It seems that she's gone
Bm F#m/A
And somehow I am pinned by
Bm/D Bm7
The hounds of winter
E F#7
Howling in the wind

[Verse 2]
A/C# G#m/B
I walk through the day
Bm F#m/A
My coat around my ears
Bm/D Bm7
I look for my companion
E F#7
I have to dry my tears
A/C# G#m/B
It seems that she's gone
Bm F#m/A
Leaving me too soon
Bm/D Bm7
I'm as dark as December
E F#7
I'm as cold as the man in the moon

[Chorus]
F#m7 Bm/D
I still see her face
A/C# G#m/B
As beautiful as day
Bm7 F#m/A
It's easy to remember
Bm E7
Remember my love that way
F#m7 Bm/D
All I hear is that lonesome sound
A/C# G#m/B
The hounds of winter
Bm7 F#7
They follow me down

[Verse 3]
A/C# G#m/B
I can't make up the fire
Bm F#m/A
The way that she could
Bm/D Bm7
I spend all my days
E F#7
In the search for dry wood
A/C# G#m/B
Board all the windows
Bm F#m/A
And close the front door
Bm/D Bm7
I can't believe
E F#7
She won't be here anymore

[Chorus]
F#m7 Bm/D
I still see her face
A/C# G#m/B
As beautiful as day
Bm7 F#m/A
It's easy to remember
Bm E7
Remember my love that way
F#m7 Bm/D
All I hear is that lonesome sound
A/C# G#m/B
The hounds of winter
Bm7 F#7
They follow me down

[Instrumental]
E B/D# D F#m7 A/C# G#m/B E F#7 2X

[Verse 4]
A/C# G#m/B
A season for joy
Bm F#m/A
A season for sorrow
Bm/D Bm7
Where she's gone
E F#7
I will surely, surely follow
A/C# G#m/B
She brightened my day
Bm F#m/A
She warmed the coldest night
Bm/D Bm7
The hounds of winter
E F#7
They got me in their sights

[Chorus]
F#m7 Bm/D
I still see her face
A/C# G#m/B
As beautiful as day
Bm7 F#m/A
It's easy to remember
Bm E7
Remember my love that way
F#m7 Bm/D
All I hear is that lonesome sound
A/C# G#m/B
The hounds of winter
Bm7 F#7
They follow me down
