Intro: G
Verse 1 chords:
[G]Portable television, shrouded in snow
In a [Am]raggedy van on the [C/G]side of the road
The [G]night it had frozen through my little bones
So you [Am]took me in your arms, you [C/G]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:
I [C/G]saw it in the soil j[G]ust recently
Where the [Am]rows of teeth they grow in fields of [G]infinite greed
And [C/G]here laid the father, and [G]here stood the son
Where the [Am]road meets the horizon for [G]everyone, for [C/G]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
