The National & St Vincent - Sleep All Summer
[Bass Intro]
[Verse 1]
A E D E Weary sun, sleep tonight, go crashing into the ocean A E D E Cut the line that ties the tide and moon, ancient and blue A E D E We take our empty hearts and fill them up with broken things A E D E To hang on humming wire like cheap lamps down a dead end street
(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
[Bridge]
Bm E Bm E And every time we turn away it hits me like a tidal wave A E D I would change for you but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man A E D Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand E And hold it in your hands again
[Chorus]
A E Cold ways kill cool lovers D E Strange ways we used each other A E D E Why won't you fall back in love with me? A E There ain't no way we're gonna find another D E The way we sleep all summer A E D E So why won't you fall back in love with me?
[Refrain]
F#m E D A A/G# Combing over Broken Cross I held on you F#m E D D Haunted by the ghost of something new
[Instrumental]
A E A E
[Verse 2]
A E D E Curtains fall, fashions fade, an endless summer over A E D E Another tide to launch an autumn moon over the dunes A E D E A There must be a better way to pull a whole apart to keep a world from caving in A E D E Another way to while away from you, frozen and blue
(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
[Bridge]
Bm E Bm E But everytime we turn away it surges like a tidal wave A E D I would change for you but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man A E D Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand E And hold it in your hands again
[Chorus]
A E Cold ways kill cool lovers D E Strange way we love to suffer A E D E Why won't you fall back in love with me? A E There ain't no way we're gonna find another D E The way we sleep all summer A E D E Why won't you fall back in love with me?
[Outro]
A E D E Why won't you fall back in love with me? A E D E Why won't you fall back in love with me? F#m E D Why won't you fall back in love with me?
