Slow Show The National
The National - Slow Show, from the album "Boxer", one of the best releases this year.
I like to play this with a capo because it sounds nicer, but if you prefer to play
one, then:
Am = C#m (x46654)
Am7 = C#m7 (x46454)
F = A (567755)
C = E (x79997)
G = B (799877)
Em = G#m (466444)
D = F#m (244222) or (x91010119)
Capo Fret 4 - All chords relative to capo
Listen to the song for the rhythm.

[Am] [Am7] [Am] [Am7] [Am] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
Standing at the punch table swallowing punch
can稚 pay attention to the sound of anyone
a little more stupid, a little more scared
every minute more unprepared
[Am] [Am7] [Am] [Am7] [Am] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
I made a mistake in my life today
everything I love gets lost in drawers
I want to start over, I want to be winning
way out of sync from the beginning
[C]I wanna hurry home to you
[F]put on a slow, d[Am]umb show for you
and crack you up[G]
so you can [C]put a blue ribbon on my br[F]ain
god I知 very, very [Am]frightening
[G]I値l overdo it
[Am]( T[Am7]ab f[Am]rom[Am7]: ht[Am]tp:[F]//[C]ww[G]w.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_national/slow_show_crd.html )
[Am] [Am7] [Am] [Am7] [Am] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
Looking for somewhere to stand and stay
I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away
Can I get a minute of not being nervous
and not thinking of my dick
[Am] [Am7] [Am] [Am7] [Am] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins
I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in
You could drive a car through my head in five minutes
from one side of it to the other
[C]I wanna hurry home to you
[F]put on a slow, d[Am]umb show for you
and crack you up[G]
so you can [C]put a blue ribbon on my br[F]ain
god I知 very, very [Am]frightening
[G]I値l overdo it
[C] [F] [Am] [G]
Em G D C (Cmaj7)*
[Em]You know I dreamed [G]about you
[D]for twenty-nine years[C] before I saw you
[Em]You know I dreamed [G]about you
[D]I missed you for
[C]for twenty-nine years
[Em]You know I dreamed [G]about you
[D]for twenty-nine years[C] before I saw you
[Em]You know I dreamed [G]about you
[D]I missed you for

[Em] [G] [D] [C]
*(Right after the C in the last part, I like to play Cmaj7 (032000). I don't think they
it that way, but it can sound nice. End the song on a C though.)
