       Am                       E7
When a man of my age shaves his face in the morning
A7                             Dm
Who is it that stares back and greets him?
Dm                           Dm/F
The ghost of his father long dead all these years?
G7                            Cmaj7
Or the boy that he was, still wet in the ears?
       E7              Am/E
Or the terrible sum of all of his fears
       E7
In the eyes of this stranger who meets him?

       Am                            E7
So his glance rarely strays from his chin or his jawline
        A7                     Dm
To face up to the truth of his soul
         Dm                  Dm/F
It's the eyes he avoids so afraid to acknowledge
          Bm7b5                E
Something strange, unexpected, out of control

          C                         G
There are times when a man needs to brave his reflection
    E7                        Am
And face what he sees without fear
           Fmaj7                Dmadd9
It takes a man to accept his mortality
      Bm7b5                          E7
Or be surprised by the presence of a tear

       Am        Asus4                         A
It was only an arrangement, a practical arrangement
     Bm7b5                            E
I forgot the first commandment of the realist's handbook
         Am            Asus4                 A
Don't be fooled by illusions you created yourself
    Bm7b5                      E                      Am
And fall in love with someone, when she loves someone else

Chorus:
       E7                    Am
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
G7                                 Cmaj7
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
         Dm          E7           Am      Am/B  Am/C
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
          Am       Dm      E7
You still love her but she loves someone
Am    A    Bm7b5
Else

    Em
And where does that leave you?
         B7sus4              B7
You self-styled man of vision
         Em                              E7
You feel stupid, you feel angry, are you losing your mind?
      Am                                  E7sus4             E7
To destroy the one she loves, does that become your mission?
       Am                        A7
Like a pantomime villain with an axe to grind?
     Dm                                A7sus4             A7
To regain your self-respect, hold your head up like a man
Dm
Use the ice around your heart before it melts
Bbmaj7                          Bm7b5                   E
But you're not fooling anybody, you're only fooling yourself

Chorus:
       E7                    Am
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
G7                                 Cmaj7
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
         Dm          E7           Am      Am/B  Am/C
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
          Am       Dm      E7
You still love her but she loves someone
Am    Asus4  A
Else
