A D E I put on my overcoat and walked into winter D My teeth chattered rhythms And they were grouped in twos or threes Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me And cars on slippery slopes, they're stuck People pushing through their mittens as I was beginning To feel it soaking through my shoes Getting colder with every step I took to your apartment, dear And I was a kaleidoscope The snow on my lenses distorting the image Of what was only one of you And I didn't know which one to address as all your lips moved F#m A And this is when I forget to breathe E Bm And all the things I scripted, they sound unfounded And it's that look that you're giving me That tells me exactly what you are thinking D A This ain't working anymore D They got their mothers worked into a panic Bm Sledding down hills into oncoming traffic D Then parents layered clothes until the children Bm couldn't move and then left them outside 'til their noses were blue F#m Dm A And I got left there, too I put on my overcoat and walked into winter My teeth chattered rhythms And they were grouped in twos or threes Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA D Dm E F# F#m Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
