Ottoman Ukulele

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

Enjoy

Intro: F Am F C 4x


F       Am         F             C
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


F       Am           F          C
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


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

F          Am        F          C
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

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


F-C-F-F until fade out
