Bright Eyes - Hundreds Of Ways

i tried to figure out the lyrics since they aren’t up on any sites yet .
i like to use bar chords for the chorus . sounds a bit brighter .
long live the haunted one!

hundreds of ways

A
what a thing to be a witness to the sunshine
A
what a dream to just be walking on the ground
F#m E D A
what a time to live among the ash and remnants of our love
A E A
it came before and im still looking for that now

A
it took centuries to build these twisted cities
A
it took seconds to reduce them down to dust
F#m E D
A
and all the tour guide could say was , “take your pictures folks , it’s late .
A E A
try your best to remember what was done . ”
D
don’t look so forlorn
A
don’t look so scared
D
don’t look so upset
A
this world was never fair

E D
there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E
there are hundreds of ways
D
now you just find one

A

A
i used to think time was of the essence
A
now i just wish i could get some sleep
F#m E D A
all these strange parades of sands the city makes when i lie down
A E A
little explosions that set fire to my dreams

A
sometimes i get mistaken for this actor
A
i guess i can see it from the side
F#m E D A
maybe no one really seems to be the person that they mean to be
A D A
i hope i Am forgotten when i die

D
don’t contradict me
A
don’t make me cross the line
D
if you feel threatened
A
its only cause i might
E D
but there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E D
there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E
yes there are hundreds of ways
D
so you best find one

A

E D
all my heroes they’re all talk
E
running in circles
D
some stopwatch some chaos

E
love was the message
D
full stop

F#m E D
we ramble on and on
F#m E D
we ramble on and on

A
i stole all the rhinestones outta of carolina
A
sold them out in bakersfield for cash
F#m E D A
the band shell got a band sound like an arcade in japan
A E A
blew all my quarters trying to get that feeling back

A
and now any sucker can turn boredom in to violence
A
a sociopath riding on a bus
F#m E D A
his irises are black from his novelty contacts
A E A
he looks around but he cant see the rest of us
D A
in my sunglasses don’t mind the blinding light
D
yah its getting dark bro
A
but i’ve always loved the night

E D
but there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E D
there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E D
there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
E D
there are hundreds of ways to get through the day
( you can play this chord to mimic the horns here F#m ( 9th fret barchord ) )
E E E E ^
E
there are hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of ways to get though the day
D
just find one
A
