Standard (EADGBE)
Lay your body down upon the midnight snow
Feel the cold of winter in your hair
Here in a world of your own, in a casing that's grown
To the children's delight, that arrived on the night
Here they come to play their magic games
Carving names upon your frozen hand
Here in a world of your own, like a sleeper whose eyes
Sees the pain with surprise, as it smothers your cries
They'll never, never know
Hey, there's a snowman, hey, hey what a snowman
Pray for the snowman, ooh, ooh, what a snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep
Smiling faces tear your body to the ground
Covered red that only we can see
Here in a ball that they made, from the snow on the ground
See it rolling away, with wild eyes to the sky
They'll never, never know
Hey, there's a snowman, hey, what a snowman
Pray for the snowman, ooh, ooh, what a snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep
Hey, there goes the snowman, hey, there what a snowman
Hey, there lies the snowman, hey, he was a snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep Repeat chorus and fade
