Cold Snap, by Weeping Tile -- written by Sarah Harmer
from the album "Cold Snap" (1995)
intro riff:
G#(on 1, 1+ and 2) E(on 3, 3+ and 4) x4
Someone always leaves that light on
I have dreams that little boys burn the house
Set afire the i-vy in the window pane
Up from the ground
Fire drills unskilled
They're uniformed
Wall paper's warm
Wall paper's warm
He's gone up, he's gone up, he's gone up to
Lie down
I stay and I wait I go quietly
And watch the minute hand, how could it be
Stolen from you?
Cold snap
Dentalfreeze
during the chorus, when the G# E progression comes in the lead guitar
plays this
first time: second time:
B-7b9--7b9-----------| x2 B---7b9-7b9r7-------------| x2
G-----------7b9--7b9-| G---------------7b9-7b9r7-|
third time:
B-7b9--7b9----------|-7b9--7b9-10b12-10b12-|
G-----------7b9-7b9-|----------------------|
intro riff x2
I hope you weren't offended
What I said about the mausoleum
And we live rent-free on loyalist land
Better crank the heat
Fire drills...
second chorus:
He's gone up, he's gone up, he's gone up to
Lie down
I stay and I wait at the end of the stairs
And watch the minute hand, how could it be
Stolen from you?
Cold snap
Frigid air
verse 3 (I'm not too sure about the lyrics)
Watch the minute hand
How could it be still
Little bird is caught
In a deep thought
I don't wanna seem unkeen
You seem unkeen (last line x4)
