Apartment Story

i’m a huge fan of the national , but their songs are not easy to play or to cover ( most them at least ) , neither to figure out actually : ) . the other chords available here are on ashow from the national and so are accurate to the way the band plays it , but it’s really that much fun to play on an acoustic guitar . i just tabbed my own version in about minutes with pretty much only simple chords . the key sounds right , and i do improvise A C variations when i play it that go nicely with the song so no , it is not accurate as in same as the original , just play or fiddle around with it and tell me what you think . enjoy! ps : the tab may miss a chord so if you feel like something is missing , it probably is : ) capo : 2nd or 3rd fret ( for me , adapt depending on your voice ) tuning : standard chords used : G : 320033 or 320003 C : 032010 C2 : 030010 ( don’t know the name of this chord ) C/E : 020010 the song with the chords : G C C2 C/E G be still for a second while i try and try to pin your flowers on C C2 C/E nana na na G can you carry my drink i have everything else C i can tie my tie all by myself G C C2 C/E im getting tied , im forgetting why G C oh were so disarming darling , everything we did believe G C C2 C/E is diving diving diving diving off the balcony G C C2 tired and wired we ruin too easy G C sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave G C C2 G hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo for hours C C2 C/E nana na na G while it sings to itself or whatever it does C when it sings to itself of its long lost loves G C C2 C/E im getting tied , im forgetting why G C C2 tired and wired we ruin too easy G C C2 sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave G C but ill be with you behind the couch when they come C2 C/E G C C/E on a different day just like this one G well stay inside til somebody finds us C do whatever the tv tells us G C C2 stay inside our rosy - minded fuzz for days C/E G well stay inside til somebody finds us C do whatever the tv tells us G C stay inside our rosy - minded fuzz C2 C/E G so worry not C all things are well C2 C/E G well be alright C C2 C/E we have our looks and perfume G stay inside til somebody finds us C do whatever the tv tells us G C stay inside our rosy - minded fuzz C2 C/E G so worry not C all things are well C2 C/E G well be alright C C2 G we have our looks and perfume on
