| It was a cold winter day, | aGE |
| I felt happy, 'til I found you. | FGC |
| You didn't listen to what the people say, | dGEa |
| you said: winning is what I have to do. | FGa |
| So you took your courage and your strength | aGE |
| and you went up the hill, | FGC |
| looking down on the valley, on it's full length | dGEa |
| and your feet were standing still. | FGa |
| Cold and tired, how you were, | Ce |
| but still laughing 'bout how far you did get, | FG |
| you were lonely standing there, | dG |
| praying: Please, no angel, yet! | FGa |
| And you kept going, | aGE |
| you were almost there, | FGC |
| but then it started snowing, | dGEa |
| and you didn't know, where you were. | FGa |
| You fell down, in the snow, | aGE |
| your joints were numb with cold, | FGC |
| and you weren't able to go, | dGEa |
| just like the people told. | FGa |
| You cried out loudly, | Ce |
| becoming so wet, | FG |
| you cried out loudly: | dG |
| Please, no angel, yet! | FGa |
| But your prayer wasn't heard, | aGE |
| there he came, your friend and foe, | FGC |
| flying wiht you, like a bird, | dGEa |
| he left your body, and took your soul. | FGa |
| So there it lied, | aGE |
| your body, cold, | FGC |
| and I laid down by its side, | dGEa |
| Waiting to be hold. | FGa FGa |
