  sun is bright....                  but she's bundled...      Repeat Part 1 & Part 2
 
 
Part 1 (finger picking)
 
Genevieve wakes up to the cold that she created
There's a winter in her mind, though outside the snow has faded
 
       Part 2 (finger picking)
And the sun is bright
But she's bundled up tight
 
Part 1
Hands deep in her pockets, she walks, she doesn't talk much
To the people that she passes, they wave, but she just looks away
 
Part 2
And so it goes everyday
 
 
Chorus:
G       F          C        C^
Genevieve, are you lonely?
G         F                C      C^
Cornered in your walls of stone (stone)
G       F          C        C^
Genevieve, are you lonely?
G         F             C
(So) You don't have to go alone
          C^
Genevieve, no you don't
 
 
*Repeat intro Part 1 + Part 2 for Verse 2*
 
See Genevieve feels different, she swears no one would understand
The world the way she sees it: a frosty, bitter no-man's-land
No one to hold her hand
 
 
But when someone approaches the ice queen in her mittens
Well, she thinks of all the times someone left her heart frost-bitten
So she shakes off the warmth
And gives in to the storm
 
 
Chorus
 
 
Bridge:
    Em          D/F#        G5           Cadd9
If you take my hand, we can rewrite your song
         Em              D/F#        G5           Cadd9
And then melt it in the water before it ever get sung
            Em              D/F#           G5              Cadd9
But you're looking out for reasons why you can't trust anyone
         Em          D/F#        G5              Cadd9
Genevieve, won't you please open up and feel the sun?
 
 
Chorus:
G       D/F#          Em        Cadd9
Genevieve, are you lonely?
G       D/F#          Em        Cadd9
Cornered in your walls of stone
G       D/F#          Em        Cadd9
Genevieve, are you lonely?
G              D/F#          Em
(See) You don't have to go alone
            Cadd9
Genevieve, no you don't
