Chords
This song is off of Elbow's sixth album "The Take Off and Landing Of Everything".
The chord sequence repeats throughout the whole song but the timing can be a bit
tricky. Try and learn the barre chords for this as I think it sounds a lot better
but if you're not confident then you can use the open chords.

VERSE 1:
B A6 The first to put a simple truth in words B Eadd9 Binds the world in a feeling all familiar Amaj7 B 'Cause everybody owns the great ideas A6 Eadd9 And it feels like there's a big one round the corner
CHORUS: (same chords as first verse)
B A6 Antenna up and out into New York B Eadd9 Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers Amaj7 B And oh, my giddy aunt, New York can talk A6 Eadd9 It's the modern Rome where folk are nice to Yoko
VERSE 2:
B Every bone of rivet steel A6 Each corner stone and angle B Jenga jut and rusted water tower Eadd9 Pillar post and sign Amaj7 B Every painted line and battered ladder building in this town A6 Eadd9 Sings a life of proud endeavour and the best that man can be
VERSE 3:
B A6 Me I see a city and I hear a million voices B Eadd9 Planning, drilling, welding, carrying their fingers to the nub Amaj7 Reaching down into the ground B Stretching up into the sky
Why?

Because they can They did and do

So you and I could live together B A6 B Eadd9 Amaj7 B A6 Eadd9 B

OUTRO:
B A6 The way the day begins B Eadd9 Decides the shade of everything Amaj7 B But the way it ends depends on if you're home A6 Eadd9 For every soul a pillow and a window, please A6 Eadd9 In the modern Rome where folk are nice to Yoko
B A6 B

And that's it. It's a really nice simple song and one of Elbow's best, in my
opinion. I think this tab is pretty accurate but there might be some mistakes in
the timing of chords but it's not too difficult to figure out.
Thanks. :)
