Cat Power - Colors & The Kids (Moon Pix 1998)
G C
It must be the colors and the kids that keep me alive
G C
'Cause the music is boring me to death
G C
It must just be the colors and the kids that keep me alive
C G
'Cause I'd wanna go right away to a January night
G
I built a shack with an old friend
C
He was someone I could learn from
G
Someone I could become
C
Will you meet me down on a sandy beach
G
We can roll up our jeans
C
So the tide won't get us below the knees
G C
Yellow hair you are a funny bear
G C
Yellow hair you are such a funny bear
G C
Slender fingers would hold me slender limbs would hold me
G C
And you could say my name like you knew my name
G C
I could stay here become someone different
G C
I could stay here become someone better
G
It's so hard to go in the city
C
'Cause you wanna say hello to everybody
G
It's so hard to go into the city
C
'Cause you wanna say hey I love you to everybody
G C
When we were teenagers we wanted to be the sky
G
Now all we wanna do is go to red places
C
And try to stay outta hell
G C
It must be the colors and the kids that keep me alive
G C
'Cause the music is boring me to death
G C
it must just be the colors and it must just be the kids
G C
That keep me alive on this January night
G C
Yellow hair you are a funny bear
G C
Yellow hair you are such a funny bear
