[Verse 1]
E A C#m A
down in the bardo
E A C#m A
there was nothing to hold so we let it go
E A C#m A
we were empty, we were hollow
E A C#m A
shined with everything we were living for
[Chorus]
B A
and you see your soul
B A
like some picture show
A E A C#mA
( ) x2
across Idaho
[Verse 2]
E A C#m A
we were running through the autumn leaves
E A C#m A
a couple kids just wearing out our jeans,
E A C#m A
running Mary she's our autumn queen
E A C#m A
watch her smoking cigarettes in the street
[Chorus]
B A
and down she goes
B A
cold she blows
A E A C#mA

across Idaho
B A
and down she goes
B A
cold she blows

across Idaho

and there's lights up in the north
F#m E A
and I ain't wondering where you are
F#m E A
[Chorus]
B A
now it's white as snow
B A
watch the evening glow
A E A C#mA

across Idaho
E A C#m A
and there's lights up in the north
E A C#m A
and I ain't wondering where you are
E A C#m A
and there's lights up in the north
