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