The National feat Sufjan Stevens - Once Upon A Poolside

[Intro]

C#

[Verse 1]

C#
Don’t make this any harder
G#
Everybody’s waiting
A#m
Walk-on’s almost over
F#
Teenagers on ice
C#
Try to keep my distance
G#
Talking of forgiveness
A#m
Once upon a poolside
F#
Underneath the lights

[Chorus]

G# F#
What was the worried thing you said to me?

[Verse 2]

C#
I’ll follow you everywhere
G#
While you work the room
A#m
I don’t know how you do it
F#
Tangerine perfume
C#
I’m not doing anyone
G#
Any kind of favors
A#m
Watching airplanes land
F#
And sink into the pavement

[Chorus]

G# F#
What was the worried thing you said to me?

[Bridge 1]

C# G# A#m
I can’t keep talking, I can’t stop shaking
F# C#
I can’t keep track of everything I’m taking
G# A#m
Everything is different, why do I feel the same?
F# G#
Am I asking for too much? Can’t hеar what you’re saying

[Chorus]

G# F#
What was the worried thing you said to me?
G# F#
I thought we could make it through anything

[Bridge 2]

C# G# A#m F#
This is the closest we’ve ever been
C# G# A#m F#
And I have no idea what’s happening
G# F#
Is this how this whole thing is gonna end?
G# F#
This is the closest we’ve ever been

[Verse 3]

C#
Don’t make this any harder
G#
Everybody’s waiting
A#m
Walk-on’s almost over
F#
Teenagers on ice
C#
Try to keep my distance
G#
Talking of forgiveness
A#m
Once upon a poolside
F#
Underneath the lights

[Chorus]

G# F#
What was the worried thing you said to me?
G# F#
I thought we could make it through anything
