This is just my rough translation of the song. I will admit, it probably isn't
correct, but it sounds very similar to the original.
Standard tuning, no capo.
Intro:
----2-------0-----0-----|
---2-------0----3---3-2-|
2-------1---------------|
------------------------|
------------------------|

*The intro can be played throughout the whole song, but the chords are recommended
after the opening.

Dmaj7 A
Made of snow, I don't know
Asus4 A
How I fit in
Dmaj7 A
To and fro, people go
Asus4 A
I stand and grin
Dmaj7 A
Way to go, even though
Asus4 A
I can't begin
Dmaj7 A
Made of snow, I don't know
Asus4 A
How I fit in

Dmaj7 A
Ever cold, love untold
Asus4 A
I don't belong
Dmaj7 A
Have and hold, so untold
Asus4 A
I think they're wrong
Dmaj7 A
Heart of gold, growin' old
Asus4 A
Just like the song
Dmaj7 A
Ever cold, love untold
Asus4 A
I don't belong
Dmaj7 A
Button eyes, lullabys,
Asus4 A
I melt away
Dmaj7 A
Criticized, compromised
Asus4 A
White turns to grey
Dmaj7 A
I'm paralyzed, otherwise
Asus4 A
I'd leave today
Dmaj7 A
Button eyes, lullabys,
Asus4 A
I melt away
Dmaj7 A
Made of snow, I don't know
Asus4 A
How I fit in
Dmaj7 A
Ever cold, love untold
Asus4 A
I don't fit in
Dmaj7 A
Button eyes, lullabys,
Asus4 A
I don't fit in
Dmaj7 A
Made of snow, I don't know
Asus4 A
How I fit in
