Portable Television

Intro: G Verse 1 chords: G Portable television, shrouded in snow Am C/G In a raggedy van on the side of the road G The night it had frozen through my little bones Am C/G So you took me in your arms, you squeezed out the cold Chorus 1 chords: G Am C/G And oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h, oh-h-h-h-h G Am C/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/G G I saw it in 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 C/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
