Ottoman Chords

(ver. 1)
Vampire Weekend
Since the first version isn't complete I figured I'd make one.

Enjoy

Intro: A Bm G D 4x


A       Bm         G             D
Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture
Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall


A       Bm           G          D
Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her
Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall


A            D        G      A
Today is for you
             D             G    
They laid it out for you
A
For you
              D                       G                       A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
         D                  G                 A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too

A          Bm        G          D
All of the cards and all of the time it took
Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book
Begging you to wait for a minute by the door
Your creeping feet where they've never been before

A            D        G      A
Today is for you
             D             G    
They laid it out for you
A
For you
              D                       G                       A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
         D                  G                 A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too


A-D-G-A until fade out
