 As the winter winds  litter London  with lonely hearts
 Oh the warmth  in your eyes  swept me into  your arms
 Was it love  or fear of the cold  that led us  through the night?
 For every  kiss your beauty  trumped my doubt
 And my head  told my heart
 "Let  love  grow"
 But my heart  told my head
 "This  time no,  this time no..."
 We'll be washed  and buried  one day  my girl
 And the time  we were  given will be left  for the world
 The flesh  that lived and loved  will be eaten  by plague
 So let  the memories be good  for those  who stay...  hey!
 And my head  told my heart
 "Let  love  grow"
 But my heart  told my head
 "This  time no,  this time no..."
 (Strum chords only once)
 Oh the shame  that sent me off  from the God  that I once loved
 Was the same  that sent  me into  your arms
 Oh and pestilence  is won  when you are lost  and I am gone
 And no hope,  no hope  will overcome
 (Bring back to normal strumming)
 And if your strife strikes  at your  sleep
 Remember spring  swaps  snow  for leaves
 You'll  be happy  and wholesome  again
 When the city  clears  and sun  ascends...  hey!
 PAUSE
 
 And my head  told my heart
 "Let  love  grow"
 But my heart  told my head
 "This  time no..."
 And my head  told my heart
 "Let  love  grow"
 But my heart  told my head
 "This  time no,  this time no..."

  [C]    [G]    [Am]     [F]

As the w[C]inter [G]winds litter [Am]London with lonely [F]hearts
Oh the w[C]armth in your [G]eyes swept me i[Am]nto your ar[F]ms
Was it l[C]ove or fear of the co[G]ld that led [Am]us through the [F]night?
For [C]every kiss your [G]beauty trumped my [Am]doubt      [F]

And my [F]head told my [C]heart
"[F]Let l[C]ove g[G]row"
But my [F]heart told my [C]head
"T[F]his t[C]ime [G]no, this time no..[C]."

We'll be wa[C]shed and [G]buried one [Am]day my [F]girl
And the t[C]ime we were[G] given will be [Am]left for the wo[F]rld
The f[C]lesh that lived and l[G]oved will be [Am]eaten by pla[F]gue
So l[C]et the memories be [G]good for t[Am]hose who s[F]tay... hey!

And my [F]head told my [C]heart
"[F]Let l[C]ove g[G]row"
But my [F]heart told my [C]head
"T[F]his t[C]ime [G]no, this time no..[C]."

(Strum chords only once)

Oh the [C]shame that sent me [G]off from the [Am]God that I once [F]loved
Was the [C]same that s[G]ent me i[Am]nto your [F]arms
Oh and [C]pestilence is [G]won when you are [Am]lost and I am [F]gone
And no [C]hope, no [G]hope will [Am]overco[F]me

(Bring back to normal strumming)
And if your [C]strife [G]strikes at [Am]your s[F]leep
Remember sp[C]ring s[G]waps sn[Am]ow for lea[F]ves
Yo[C]u'll be h[G]appy and wh[Am]olesome a[F]gain
When the [C]city c[G]lears and [Am]sun asc[F]ends... hey!
