Slipped Chords

(ver. 1)
The National
[Verse 1]
C#m7 B        E         A
  I'm in the city you hated, my eyes are falling
C#m7 B           E             A
  Counting the clicks with the living dead, my eyes are red
C#m7 B       E/B         A
  I'm in the crush and I hate it, my eyes are falling
B/F# E/G#    A                      B E/B         A
  I'm having trouble inside my skin, I tried to keep my skeletons in
C#m7       B          E          A
  Is it weird to be back in the South? And can they even tell
C#m7        B           E       Amaj7
  That the city girl was ever there, or anywhere?
B    E/B        A                B    E/B         A
  I'm having trouble inside my skin, I tried to keep my skeletons in
B     E/G#     A           C#m        B
  I'll be a friend and a f**k-up and everything
    C#m         B
But I'll never be anything you ever want me to be
 
 
[Chorus]
E       B6/F#       A            E/G#      B/F#
 I keep coming back here, where everything slipped, ah ah ah
E     B6       A   E/G#  B/F#
  But I will not spill my guts out, ah ah ah
E       B6/F#       A              E/G#   Badd11/F#
 I keep coming back here, where everything slipped, ah ah ah
E     B6       A   E/G#  B7/F#   B
  But I will not spill my guts out
 
[Interlude]
 C#m   B
ah ah ah
C#m B
  ah ah ah
C#m
 
[Verse 2]
C#m      B        E             A
 I don't need any help to be breakable, believe me
C#m     B       E             A
 I know nobody else who can laugh along to any kind of joke
C#m7     B        E           A
 I won't need any help to be lonely when you leave me
B         E        A    B            E       A
It'll be easy to cover, gather my skeletons far inside
B           E         A       C#m    B       C#m   B
It'll be summer in Dallas before I realize, ah ah ah
 
 
[Verse 3]
         C#m7           Badd11     E             A
I don't want you to grieve, but I want you to sympathize, alright
          C#m7         B           E            A
I can't blame you for losing your mind for a little while, so did I
         C#m7         B            E            A
I don't want you to change, but I want you to recognize that I
B         E        A    B              E       A
It'll be easy to cover, gather your skeletons far inside
B           E         A      C#m       B
It'll be summer in Dallas before you realize
     C#m         B
That I'll never be anything you ever want me to be
 
 
[Chorus]
E       Badd11      A           E/G#     Badd11/F#
 I keep coming back here where everything slipped, ah ah ah
E     Badd11/F# A6   E/G#  Badd11/F#
  But I will   not spill my guts out, ah ah ah
E       Badd11      A           E/G#     Badd11/F#
 I keep coming back here where everything slipped
E     Badd11/F# A    E/G#  Badd11/F#   C#m7  Badd9
  But I will   not spill my guts out, ah ah ah
C#m B
  ah ah ah
