Artist: David Bowick
Song: Colder in Columbus
Part of the song: whole song
[Intro]
C F G C
[Verse]
C F
The sticky south has lost its touch
G C
Dented hood a busted clutch
C F
Loosened up its Bible belt
G C
From ice cream that no longer melts
C F
I feel a chill now in my throat
G C
Like a thought that was never spoke
C F
No condensation on my glass
G C
Like I sang a song and no one clapped
[Chorus]
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
As we sing a soft and lonely hymn
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
It’s as cold now as your skin
[Verse]
C F
Who ordered all this ice?
G C
Hope they didn’t charge us twice
C F
I used to hate the feel of sweat
G C
Now I’m hoping I never forget
C F
A stuffy room full of tough old men
G C
Can’t even cry when they say Amen
C F
Zoe knew you left the earth
G C
She said it felt like Leo’s birth
[Chorus]
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
As we sing a soft and lonely hymn
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
It’s as cold now as your skin
[Verse]
C F
Your wife gave more than you asked
G C
Enough love that could fill a glass
C F
I don’t know who could ask for more
G C
Than to live in the clothes you wore
C F
Do it well or not at all
G C
Was never written on your wall
[Chorus]
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
As we sing a soft and lonely hymn
C/B F C
And now it is colder in Columbus
G C
It’s as cold now as your skin
