[Verse]
F Am7 F Am Dm
And if the snow buries my,
A Bb F
my neighborhood.
F Am7 F
And if my parents are crying
Am Dm
then I'll dig a tunnel
A Bb F
from my window to yours,
Am Dm A Bb F
yeah a tunnel from my window to yours
F Am7 F
You climb out the chimney
Am Dm
and meet me in the middle,
A Bb F
the middle of the town.
F Am7 F
And since there's no one else around,
Am Dm
we let our hair grow long
A Bb F
and forget all we used to know,
Am Dm
then our skin gets thicker
A Bb F
from living out in the snow.
[Chorus]
F Am
You change all the lead
F Am
Sleeping in my head
Dm Am
As the day grows dim
Dm C C7
I hear you sing a golden hymn
F
[Verse]
F Am7 F
Then we tried to name our babies,
Am Dm
but we forgot all the names that,
A Bb F
the names we used to know.
F Am7 F
But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms,
Am Dm
and our parent's bedrooms,
A Bb F
and the bedrooms of our friends.
Am Dm
Then we think of our parents,
A Bb F
well what ever happened to them?!
[Chorus]
F Am
You change all the lead
F Am
Sleeping in my head to gold
Dm Am
As the day grows dim
Dm Am C
I hear you sing a golden hymn
C7
The song I've been trying to sing
F Am
Purify the colors
F Am
Purify my mind
Dm Am
Purify the colors
Dm Am C
Purify my mind,
C7
Spread the ashes of the colors
over this heart of mine!
