Standard (EADGBE)

 How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain

 As the changing of seasons prepares me again

 For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day

 My heart has grown cold my love stored away

 My heart has grown cold my love stored away

Verse 2

I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow

Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go

I've taken the pain no girl should endure

Faith can move mountains of that I am sure

But faith can move mountains of that I am sure

Chorus

 Just get me through December

 A promise I'll remember

 Get me through December

 So I can start again

Verse 3

No divine purpose brings freedom from sin

And peace is a gift that must come from within

I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest

Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest

Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest

chorus

 Get me through December

 A promise I'll remember

 Get me through December

 So I can start again
