A D I know on paper I seem appealing A That's misleading G A That's misleading A D I have this cigarette I've been concealing Bm I don't smoke it 'cause I know I'd die A Bm I just hold it in the fading light E D And anyone who passes might think that F#m I'm more interesting than I am Must have left behind some autre band A D To make something far more revealing A G A Like in a basic sense Chorus: A Bm A E So live with me, won't you? D Dreams, they could come true E If panic and worry D Are dreams that you would choose We'd spend our nights listening to The National That was special Even though your car was small You said your favourite song Was the one about death I said every single one's like that In fact there's literally nothing left You said bound to be hits the ceiling Now we are exactly where we are Between the greatest and the lost on Mars All I know is I need to see you See you Chorus Bm Erratic emotion F#m Endless devotion Bm Visible ageing F#m Chronic impatience E I'm working on | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  C#  D  E  F#m  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
