Vampire Weekend – Mansard Roof (Guitar)

F
I see a Mansard Roof through the trees,

F                     Gm
I see a salty message written in the eves,

   C
The ground beneath my feet

         F                Dm
the hot garbage and concrete,

            Gm  
And now the tops of buildings

C                     F
I can see them too!

F
I see a Mansard Roof through the trees,

F                     Gm
I see a salty message written in the eves,

   C
The ground beneath my feet

         F                Dm
the hot garbage and concrete,

            Gm  
And now the tops of buildings

C                     F
I can see them too!

F
The Argentines collapse in defeat,

F                      Gm
The admiralty surveys the remnants of the fleet,

   C
The ground beneath their feet

     F                  Dm
Is a nautically map sheet

       Gm
as thin as paper

C                           F
while it slips away from you.
