cause today the sun kissed a layer of skin from your nose.

[Verse]
Dm       F/A        G/B            Dm
I guess none of you thought of its roots
Dm7    G/B          A/Db          Dm7
As the living dead trapped underground
G/B  Bb  A   Dm7
Dm                 F/A          G/B      F
Or of the blizzard above or the hero I'd be
         Eb/G     F/A         C
Planting bonfires all around town.
          Dm     F/A       G/B     G    Gm      F
So as the frost licks the layer of skin off the nose
         Eb/G      F/A          G/B         F
Of your neighbor, remember who chopped the old shade tree
C
down, down
