Intro: G+G
Verse 1 chords:
G+G
Portable television, shrouded in snow
A minorAm C/GC/G
In a raggedy van on the side of the road
G+G
The night it had frozen through my little bones
A minorAm C/GC/G
So you took me in your arms, you squeezed out the cold
Chorus 1 chords:
G+G A minorAm C/GC/G
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
G+G A minorAm C/GC/G G+G
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
Verse 2: use verse 1 chords
Upstate New York, autumn, brightly colored leaves
Oh, the hills were on fire, they burn for you and me
And where we were going it was built like a lie
But as sacred as the Bible, so we didn't question why
Chorus 2: use chorus 1 chords
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
Bridge:
C/GC/G G+G
I saw it in the soil just recently
A minorAm G+G
Where the rows of teeth they grow in fields of infinite greed
C/GC/G G+G
And here laid the father, and here stood the son
A minorAm G+G C/GC/G
Where the road meets the horizon for everyone, for everyone
Verse 3: use verse 1 chords
Portable television, take us away
From this burden of reflection we've carried today
Oh, the generator's running but there's nothing on the air
And the static is a comfort, so we huddle around and stare
Chorus 3: use chorus 1 chords
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h
