Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlanticism Chords

The F#m-to-E walkdown happens only after the first line of the verse.


A                    C#m                  Dsus2         F#m  (E)
The Atlantic was born today and I’ll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out.

I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
When the water filled every hole.

And thousands upon thousands made an ocean, 
Making islands where no island should go.

Oh no.

Those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat. 

The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door
Have been silenced forever more.

The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
It seems farther than ever before

Oh no.

Dsus2        A    F#m   E     (Build to Crescendo) 
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
F#m             C#m             Dsus2           E
I need you so much closer       I need you so much closer
F#m             B               Dsus2           E
I need you so much closer       I need you so much closer

F#m             C#m             Dsus2           E
I need you so much closer       I need you so much closer
F#m             B               Dsus2           E
I need you so much closer       I need you so much closer

So come on, come on
So come on, come on
So come on, come on
So come on, come on
