Get Me Through December

Allison Krauss


Tom: D

     D          Em          Bm             G
How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain
        D           Em         Bm        G
As the changing of seasons prepares me again
         D            Em           Bm             G
For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day
    D               Em           Bm     G
My heart has grown cold my love stored away
    D               Em           Bm     G
My heart has grown cold my love stored away


[Verse 2]

      D          Em                Bm             G
I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
        D              Em           Bm             G
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
      D         Em      Bm            G
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
 D             Em           Bm         G
Faith can move mountains of that I am sure
     D             Em           Bm         G
But faith can move mountains of that I am sure

     
[Chorus]

      G                A
Just get me through December
     Bm            A
A promise I'll remember
    G              A
Get me through December
 A              D
So I can start again

           
[Verse 3]

   D       Em             Bm           G
No divine purpose brings freedom from sin
      D         Em             Bm           G
And peace is a gift that must come from within
        D            Em            Bm           G
I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest
 D            Em             Bm            G
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
 D            Em             Bm            G
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest

      
[Chorus]

    G              A
Get me through December
    Bm             A
A promise I'll remember
    G              A
Get me through December
           D
So I can start again
