Verse 1:
C     Dm    Am  F     C          Dm    Am    F
  Beneath apocalyptic snowflakes from above
C     Dm    Am  F     C          Dm    Am    F
  We're not in peril, we are in apoca-love
   C        Dm          Am        F
So let's go walking, or Christmas shopping
    C        Dm          Am        F
No, let's do something a bit more shocking
      C         Dm        Am              F
Let's go to the windmill, let's find some catharsis
       C        Dm           Am       F
Let's go to the graveyard in cover of darkness

Pre-chorus:
    C     Dm                   Am      F
And it's okay, I've done this tons of times
             C     Dm               Am    F
Well, maybe once a year since I was very young
            C     Dm             Am      F
It will be fine, okay? I do this all the time
         C            Dm             Am               F
And nothing could go wrong, unless that's what you'd like

Chorus:
             C     Dm   Am               F
Is this the first time that you've ever seen
 C         Dm     Am      F
Aurora Borealis crush mankind?
    C    Dm     Am               F
The wind chimes chiming with the screams
   C             Dm          Am  F  Am    Dm
A pretty winter night, your hand in mine

Post-chorus:
       C         Dm   Am   Dm
The horizon is a fog
          C         Dm      Am   Dm
From the breath of everyone
       C                  Dm   Am   Dm
And I hope you're having fun
        C                Dm
I just had to share with someone

Instrumental: C Am Dm F (x4)

Verse 2:
C     Dm      Am   F         C     Dm      Am    F
 This is the empty building that I call my home
C     Dm    Am    F           C        Dm    Am    F
 Baby it's cold inside, don't leave me here alone
         C      Dm          Am        F
There's no good movies, but there's a fire
        C      Dm          Am      F
Well, scented candles that are on fire
   C              Dm            Am         F
So let's take the night off, be joyful and joyously
C         Dm             Am        F
Enjoy the moon-rise, and let it destroy us

Pre-chorus:
    C     Dm              Am   F               C
And it's okay, as long as we believe we'll be okay
   Dm          Am       F                  C
As if anything could go wrong on Christmas Eve
  Dm               Am          F
Okay, you know I'm glad you're here
         C        Dm            Am      F
So I can show you this before I disappear

Chorus:
             C     Dm   Am               F
Is this the first time that you've ever seen
 C         Dm     Am      F
Aurora Borealis crush mankind?
  C    Dm    Am            F
A flashlight underneath my chin
   C             Dm          Am  F  Am    Dm
A pretty winter night, your hand in mine

Post-chorus:
               C           Dm   Am   Dm
Now we're swallowed by the fog
         C              Dm   Am   Dm
From the breath of everyone
      C              Dm   Am   Dm
I can barely see you now
         C          Dm   Am   Dm
But your smile is a frown
        C              Dm   Am   Dm
Yeah, I knew it had to stop
         C              Dm   Am   Dm
'Cause I always mess it up
       C            Dm   Am   Dm
And I get it if you run
         C                Dm C
I just had to share with someone
