It's my first tab, I just listened to Birdy's version and thought those chords fit, but if you find some mistakes, please correct me :) Birdy (orig. by Postal Service) - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight [Intro] C F Am Am C F Am Am C F Am Am C F Am Am [Verse 1]
C       F     Am   Am
 Smeared black ink

C     F            Am                  
 Your face is ashen and I'm barely listening

C   F       Am
 To last demands

C                   F
 I'm staring at the asphalt wondering

Am                      Am
 What's buried underneath
[Chorus]
 C     F G  G 
 Where I am

 C     F G  G
 Where I am
[Verse 2]
      C    F  Am    Am
 I'll wear my badge

C                     F                 Am
 A vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest

C   F                Am
  That tells your new  friends

C       F           
 I am a visitor here

Am
 I am not permanent

C        F    Am
 And the only thing

C    F      Am
 Keeping me dry is
[Chorus]
C        F      G              G
Where    I      am            (In this gaudy apartment complex)
[You seem so out of context]
C           F       G             G
Where       I       am           (Explaining that I am just visiting)
[A stranger with your door key]
C           F      G        G
Where       I      am      (why I was the one worth leaving)
[And I am finally seeing]
 F                          C

 D.C. sleeps alone tonight

Am G   F               D
 D.C. sleeps alone tonight
[Chorus]
C        F      G              G
Where    I      am            (In this gaudy apartment complex)
[You seem so out of context]
C           F       G            G
Where       I       am           (Explaining that I am just visiting)
[A stranger with your door key]
C           F      G        G                           C
Where       I      am      (why I was the one worth leaving)
[And I am finally seeing]
 F                           C
(Why I was the one worth leaving)
[Bridge]
Am            F                G             ( Dm )                  Am
 The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights

                F            G                      Am
 And leave the autos swerving into the loneliest evening

Am          F         G               F               Am
 And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving

G              F             C
 Why I was the one worth leaving

G              F             C
 Why I was the one worth leaving

G              F             C
 Why I was the one worth leaving
