Intro:
Bm E G Asus2  x2

Verse:
Bm           E                G
Blowing trash in bitter wind,
            Asus2               Bm
zip my sweatshirt to the top
                E                         G
Shoulders high and hands are hid,
               Asus2                 Bm
in pockets not quite adequate
               E                   G
Sidewalk take me to the fire,
              Asus2               Bm
that will melt my frozen soul
                   E                    G
Please don't let me stay this way,
          Asus2
I'm so cold and all alone

Chorus:
Bm
Glass and steel cut through the wind

a lake storm sent this way
                      G
Dividing up the avenues,
                      Asus2
I walk to give away the blues,
                          D      C#m  Asus2  Bm
and take the day away

Verse:
Bm         E                         G
Walking quickly through the rain,
                Asus2              Bm
I make no contact with my eyes
                        E                          G
I weave through coats that hang on men,
          Asus2              Bm
she in nowhere in my sight
           E                    G
People stand in corner crowds,
                     Asus2                    Bm
with eyes that point down to their wrists,
             E                      G
Wishing they were warm inside,
           Asus2                  Bm
as they breathe into their fists

Chorus:
Bm
Glass and steel cut through the wind

a lake storm sent this way
                      G
Dividing up the avenues,
                      Asus2
I walk to give away the blues,
                          D      C#m  Asus2  Bm
and take the day away



I am pretty sure that this is right. I don't know if the D and C#m chords are entirely
correct, but the bass note of the chords are D and C#. The 0 on the e string is kinda
hard to hear on the cd, but if you slow down the song, you'll hear that it is there.
