Listen to the song to get the picking pattern.
Song goes like this, with chords placed over where they occur:
Verse:
[G]Cold is the water
It freezes your [C]already cold mind
G (fill)
Already cold, cold mind
[G]And death is at your doorstep
And it will steal your i[C]nnocence
G (fill)
But it will not steal your substance
Chorus:
But [D]you are not [C]alone in t[G]his
And [C]you are not [Em]alone in t[G]his
C Dsus4 G Em <--(walk down)
As brothers we will stand and we'll hold your hand
[Em]Hold your h[G]and
(fill)
Verse:
[G]And you are the mother
The mother of your b[C]aby child
G (fill)
The one to whom you gave life
[G]And you have your choices
And these are what m[C]ake man great
G (fill)
His ladder to the stars
Chorus:
But [D]you are not a[C]lone in th[G]is
And y[C]ou are not [Em]alone in t[G]his
C Dsus4 G Em <--(walk down)
As brothers we will stand and we'll hold your hand
[Em]Hold your h[G]and
(fill , build up momentum to strumming)
Climax/Breakdown:
And [C]I [Dsu4]will t[Em]ell t[C]he ni[G]ght
[C]Whis-[Dsus4]per, "[Em]Lose [C]your [G]sight"
But [C]I [Dsus4]can't [Em]move [C]the [G]moun-t[C]ains for yo[G]u
Don't forget to play the Em differently on that last bit and play the C the same you
as in the chorus.
Hope this was helpful it is a beautiful song.
