[Intro] F [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
sleepin' in my head,

Dm                 Am
  as the day grows dim

Dm                  C     C7 
  I hear you sing a golden hymn. 
[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
sleepin' in my head,

Dm                 Am
  as the day grows dim

Dm                  C     C7 
  I hear you sing a golden hymn,
the song I've been trying to say.
F                            Am
Purify the colors, purify my mind.

Dm                           C 
Purify the colors, purify my mind,

                            C7 
and spread the ashes of the colors 
over this heart of mine! THEN REPEATED AS ABOVE NOTE: IF, LIKE ME, YOU HATE PLAYING THAT AWKWARD F CHORD FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME, YOU CAN PUT A CAPO ON FRET 5 AND PLAY IT LIKE THIS: - VERSE: C Em7 C Em Am E F C CHORUS: C Em C Em Am Em Am G G7
