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