Em7It wBm7as cold in the kitchen and the lights were low
Dm7As wAm7inter slowly stumbled home
Em7The Bm7air felt different and it started to show
Dm7As eAm7very breath resembled smoke
Em7I waBm7s short of opinions and I wanted to know
Dm7If yAm7ou'd still be here tomorrow
Em7Cuz Bm7it was cold in the kitchen and the lights were low
Dm7As wAm7inter wrapped around Chicago
Esus2The T.BV.'s on too much
DAnAd I don't ever think enough
Esus2About Bthe things that matter most
DOrA what can make me old
Esus2And thBere's no argument
DFoAr wasting time much better spent
Esus2ComplaBcent(ly) *BB is not one to stick to the same lyrics...
(in) replacing
DA Amelody with smoke
I play these chords like this...
As has been suggested, you can play around with these chords a lot.
For instance, using m7th's or m11th's, or 7sus4's...
Em7 Bm7 Dm7 Am7 Esus2 B D A
E-7---7---5---5---7-----7-5-5---|
B-8---7---6---5---7-----7-7-5---|
G-7---7---5---5---9-----8-7-6---|
D-9---7---7---5---9-----9-7-7---|
A-7---9---5---7---7-----9-5-7---|
E-----7-------5---------7---5---|
Play this 3 times...
E G A G A
E--------------------------------0--|-0-------------0---0------------|
B-/9-----------------------------0--|-0-------------0---0------------|
G-/9--11--9----------------------4--|-6-------------4---6------------|

A-----------/11\9--7--7--4--2----5--|-7-------------5---7------------|

Or this way as suggested by Mark Gedmin (mrgedmi@ilstu.edu)
E-----------------0--0---|
B--9-7-5----------0--0---|
G---------4-2-1---4--6---|
D--9-7-6----------5--7---|
A---------5-2-2---5--7---|
E-----------------3--5---|
Then this transition riff to get to the next part...
E--------------------------------|
B-7-6-----6-----6-9-8------8-----|
G-----9-7---7-9-------11-9-------|
D--------------------------------|
A--------------------------------|
E--------------------------------|
Repeat this with the following lyrics...
B A G F E F G A
E-0---0--0---0--0---0--0---0-|
B-0---0--0---0--0---0--0---0-|
G-8---6--4---2--1---2--4---6-|
D-9---7--5---3--2---3--5---7-|
A-9---7--5---3--2---3--5---7-|
E-7---5--3---1--0---1--3---5-|
I don't expect a smile when I come home
But the blankets that I stole should keep you warm
I hope there's not enough to fill a hole
I'm further from the source to feel the floor
Then this again...
E--------------------------------|
B-7-6-----6-----6-9-8------8-----|
G-----9-7---7-9-------11-9-------|
D--------------------------------|
A--------------------------------|
E--------------------------------|
Now repeat everything up to the 1st transition riff,
and end with an A chord that fades into a B chord.
