[Intro] F
F F/E F F/E Dm A Bb F F
And if the snow buries my / My neighborhood
F F/E F F/E Dm
And if my parents are crying / Then I'll dig a tunnel
A Bb F F/E Dm A Bb F F F
from my window to yours / Yeah a tunnel from my window to yours
F F/E F F/E Dm
You climb out the chimney / And meet me in the middle
A Bb F F F F/E F
The middle of the town / And since there's no one else around
F/E Dm A Bb F
We let our hair grow long / And forget all we used to know
F/E Dm A Bb F
Then our skin gets thicker / From living out in the snow
F F/E F F/E
You change all the lead / Sleepin' in my head
Dm Dm/E Dm Dm/E C C/D C/E C/F C/G
As the day grows dim / I hear you sing a golden hymn
F . . . F . . .
[Instrumental]
F F/E F F/E Dm
Then we tried to name our babies / But we forgot all the names that
A Bb F F
The names we used to know
F F/E F F/E Dm
But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms / And our parent's bedrooms
A Bb F
And the bedrooms of our friends
F/E Dm A Bb
Then we think of our parents / Well whatever happened to them?
F F/E F F/E
You change all the lead / Sleepin' in my head
Dm Dm/E Dm Dm/E C
To gold / As the day grows dim / I hear you sing a golden hymn
C/D C/E C/F C/G
The song I've been trying to say
F F/E F F/E
Purify the colors / Purify my mind
Dm Dm/E Dm Dm/E C
Purify the colors / Purify my mind
F
And spread the ashes of the colors / over this heart of mine
