[Intro]
D C 2x  D
       
[Verse]
                  C            
I cut down that withered peach tree
D                      C        D
Just like you asked me to
                     C
And I hacked it into pieces
Em                               D
Set it on fire with your face in plain view
       G                     D
At the near window where you stood
C                     G
Watching me split the wood

[Chorus]
G                 D
I will do as I am told
C                    G
I will keep away the cold

D C 2x D

[Verse]
                    C
The fire pit in the snow
D                      C     
Gave off a rich bright orange-red glow
   D                  C
A familiar scent rose up into the air
      Em                                  C
And I remembered something special from a long time ago
    G                   D
You opened up the door
C                     G
Stepped away from the killing floor
     G                                   D
Your footprint on the snow was fresh and new
C                          G
When you touched me I felt fire come through

[Chorus]
G                 D
I will do as I am told
C                    G
I will keep away the cold
G                 D
I will do as I am told
C                    G
I will keep away the cold

[Outro]
D C 4x
