I've got something here, it's [A] a chance [D] I'ma make my changes [A] as I go
And the city [E] lights dance away the [A] stars [D] I've met all [A] kinds of reasons why
[E] The seasons leave their [A] scars I [D] am thin as [A] cinnamon
And [E] tarnished like these metal [Am] cars [D] That drive
[A] along the rivers of [E] tar
I am weatherproof as [A] the rain And [D] I fooled [A] every lover into [E] drinking up my [A] pain
I [D] am hanging [A] by the edges of [E] my name But I am [A]
warm, [D] so comfortable [A]
forgetting [E] about the storm
I [A] love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado Atlanta, Montana, Nebraska, and the [E] moon and [A] you
I must have been a traveler inside of the womb Never had a place with the living room
[E] You [A] said a house is a tomb Well, zoom, zoom, zoom, here we go
And no more planning, business standing I've got you and you've got me

[E] I'm going back to [A] the lake [D] This time of year [A] it's frozen through
[E] Ain't nothing gonna [A] break [D] I'll take you there [A] and show you where [E] I used to spend [A] my time
[D] Before working, [A] before leaving, [E] before wine
I [A] love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado Atlanta, Montana, Nebraska, and the [E] moon and [A] you
Life is easy coming, it's easy go to I was with the birds and I guess they flew
[E] I just can't get [A] a grip on this place, really, Lou
Well, zoom, zoom, zoom, here we go And no more planning, business standing
I've got you and you've got me
