These are Tropic Morning News chords by The National on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.
[Intro]
C#m B A B
[Verse 1]
C#m
I wasn\'t starting yet
B
I didn\'t even think
you were listening
A
I wasn\'t ready at all
B
To say anything about
anything interesting
C#m
It\'s a thing you have
B
You just don\'t know
that you do it
A
You wait around
in a conversation
B
While I get in and
start stumbling through it
[Chorus]
E
I was so distracted then
F#m
I didn\'t have it
straight in my head
D
I didn\'t have my face on
yet or the role or the feel
E
Of where I was
going with it all
E
I was suffering
more than I let
F#m
On. The tropic morning
news was on
D
There\'s nothing
stopping me now
E
From saying all the
painful parts out loud
[Verse 2]
C#m
Got to my feet
B
Feeling that I\'d let you down
A
Wanted to say it
slow and perfect
B
But it all somehow
got switched around
C#m
Something went off on its own
B
My dumb, automatic
chit-chat
A
It\'s not what
I meant to say at all
B
There\'s no way you
can attach me to that

[Chorus]
E
Got up to seize the day
F#m
With my head in my hands
feeling strange
D
When all my thinking
got mangled
E
And I caught myself talking
myself off the ceiling
E
I was suffering
more than I let
F#m
on, the tropic
morning news was on
D
There\'s nothing
stopping me now
E
From saying all the
painful parts out loud
[Post-Chorus]
E F#m
Oh, where are all the moments
we\'d have?
D
Oh, where\'s the brain
we shared?
E
Something somehow
has you rapidly improving
E
Oh, what happened to
F#m
the wavelength we were on?
D
Oh, where\'s the gravity gone?
Something somehow has
E
you rapidly improving
[Bridge]
A E F#m D
A E F#m D
A E
You found the ache
in my argument
F#m D
You couldn\'t wait to
get out of it
A E
You found the slush
in my sentiment
F#m D
You made it sound
so intelligent
A
You can stop and start
E
an athlete\'s heart
F#m D
How do I feel about it?
A E
I would love to have nothing
to do with it
D
I would like to move on
and be through with it
[Verse 3]
C#m E A B
C#m
I\'ll be over here
B
lying near the ocean
Making ocean sounds
A
Let me know if you can come over
B
And work the controls
for a while
[Chorus]
E
I was so distracted then
F#m
I didn\'t have it straight
in my head
D
I didn\'t have my face
on yet or the role or the feel
E
Of where I was
going with it all
E
I was suffering
more than I let
F#m

morning news was on
D
There\'s nothing
stopping me now
E
From saying all the
painful parts out loud
[Post-Chorus]
E
Oh, where are all the
F#m
moments we\'d have?
D
Oh, where\'s the brain
we shared?
E
Something somehow has
you rapidly improving
E
Oh, what happened to
