I Was a Kaleidoscope Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][Em][C][Em][C][G][C][D][C][Em][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I put on my [C]overcoat and [D]walked into winter[Em],
my [C]teeth [Em]chattered [C]rhythms[G]
And they were grouped in [C]twos or threes,
Like [D]a Morse code message
[C]was sent fro[Em]m me to [G]me.
Cars on slippery [C]slopes,
they're stuck: people [D]pushing through
Their mit[C]tens as I was [G]beginning to feel
it [C]soaking through my shoes,
Getting [D]colder with every [C]step I took to your apartment,

[Interlude 1]
dear.
[Em][G][Am][G][Em][G][Am][G][Am]
[G]

[Verse 2]
And I was a kal[C]eidoscope,
[D]the snow on my [G]lenses dis[Em]torting the [C]image [G]of what
Was only [C]one of you and [D]I didn't know
which one [C]to address as all your lips
[Em]Moved.

[Verse 3]
This is when I for[G]get breathe all the things
I scripted, they [Am]sound unfoun[G]ded.
[Em]And the look that you're givin[G]g me,
it [D]tells [G]me exactly what [Am]you a[G]re thinking,
[C]"this ain't working anymore."
[G]

[Interlude 2]
[C][D][C][Em][C][G][C][D][C]

[Verse 4]
They got their mothers [C]worked
into a panic
[Am]Sledding down hills into
oncom[Em]ing t[D]raffic
The [C]parents layered [F]clothes un[C]til the children
couldn't move then [Am]kept them
Outside til their noises [D]were blue and [Em]I got lef[C]t th[Cm]ere,
[G]too.
[C][D][Em]

[Verse 5]
[G]
I put on [C]my overcoat and [D]walked into winter[Em],
my teeth chattered [G]rhythms.
And they were grouped in [C]twos or threes like a
[D]Morse code message was [C]sent from [D]me
[C]To me.
