Transatlanticism  Death Cab for Cutie

The atlantic was[A] born today and I'll te[C#m]ll you how:[D] [F#m]
[A]The clouds above opened[C#m] up and let it ou[D]t.[F#m] [E]
I was [A]standing on the surface of a p[C#m]erforated sphere
When the w[D]ater filled every [F#m]hole.[E]
And [A]thousands upon thousands made an o[C#m]cean,
Making islands where [D]no island should [F#m]go.[E]
Oh no.

[A]Those people were overj[C#m]oyed; they took to their[D] boats.[F#m]
[A]I thought it less like a l[C#m]ake and more like a m[D]oat. [F#m]

The [A]rhythm of my footsteps crossing [C#m]flood lands to your door have been
[D]Silenced forever [F#m]more.
The [A]distance is quite simply much too [C#m]far for me to row
It seems [D]farther than ever [F#m]before[E]
Oh no.
