Dm G C/G G C/G Dm
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
Dm G C/G G C/G Dm
Tumbling and falling down the avalanche
Bb C F F/E G
So be quiet tonight the stars shine bright
Bb C G Gsus G
On this mountain of new fallen snow
Bb C F F/E G
But I will raise up my voice into the void
Bb Am Dm G C/G G
You have left me nowhere to go
Dm G C/G
I love you so much and it's so bizzare
G C/G G Dm
A mystery that goes on and on and on
Dm G C/G
It is the best thing and the very most hard
G C/G G Dm
And we don't get along
Bb C F F/E G
After countless appeals, we keep spinning our wheels
Bb C G Gsus G
On this mountain of new fallen snow
Bb C F F/E G
So I let go the catch and we're over the edge
Bb Am Dm
You have left me nowhere to go
Dm G C/G G
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
SOLO
Dm G C/G
Sometimes you make me loose my will to live
G C/G Dm
And just become a beacon for your soul
Dm G C/G
The past is stronger than my will to forgive
G C/G Dm
Forgive you or myself, I don't know
Dm G C/G Dm
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
Dm G C/G G C/G Dm
Tumblin' and fallin' down the avalanche
Bb C F F/E G
So be quiet tonight be sure to step lightly
Bb G Gsus G
On this mountain of new fallen snow
Bb C F F/E G
But I will raise up my voice into the void
Bb Am Dm
You have left me nowhere to go
G C/G G
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
