The National - Sleep All Summer  ( Crooked Fingers Cover )

It's my first tab, but I think it should be right. 


C                   G            F                G  
Weary sun, sleep tonight, go crashing into the ocean
C                   G               F                  G
Cut the line that ties the tide and moon, ancient and blue
C                     G               F                  G
We take our empty hearts and fill them up with broken things
C                   G              F                       G
To hang on humming wire like cheap lamps down a dead end street

(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
Dm                      G      Dm                     G
And every time we turn away it hits me like a tidal wave
C                                                G                        F
I would change for you but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man
C                                             G                    F         
Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand
G                         C
And hold it in your hands again
C                      G
Cold ways kill cool lovers
F                           G
Strange ways we used each othe
C                            F       C  G
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                                        G
There ain't no way we're gonna find another
  F                     G
The way we sleep all summer
C                              F        C G  
So why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                 G          F      G  
Combing over Broken Cross I held on you
C               G         F        G   
Haunted by the ghost of something new

C                        G          F            G
Curtains fall, fashions fade, an endless summer over
C                      G         F                G
Another tide to launch an autumn moon over the dunes
C                        G                 F                          G
There must be a better way to pull a whole apart To keep a world from caving in
C                    G          F               G
Another way to while away from you, frozen and blue

(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
Dm                     G    Dm                     G
But everytime we turn away it surges like a tidal wave
C                                      G                           F
I would change but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man
C                                                      G                  F
Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand
G                          C
And hold it in your hands again
C                     G 
Cold ways kill cool lovers
F                       G
Strange way we use each other
C                           F        C  G 
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                                   G
There ain't no way we're gonna find another
F                      G
The way we sleep all summer
C                           F         C  G
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                           F         C  G
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                           F         C  G
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
C                           F         C  G
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
