The National, City Middle
AT LONG LAST somebody has put some chords up.
This is by no means an easy song to pick out. There are a lot of tracks and there seems
be a degree of improvisation particularly
in the low synthy noises so, it won't be exact by any stretch of the imagination but I
give you what are some damned
close chords and will certainly be recognisable as the song. It's just with all the
you've then got woodwind, a violin and a
piano, it's a bloody nightmare.
I will give you the chords and any important 'licks' that recur.
Whenever I give a chord with a specific bass note (e.g. G/B) please pay attention
it matters a lot in this song.
At the first instance of "I have weird memories of you" I have given three slightly
D/A chords. While they shouldn't
really be treated as separate chords it serves to highlight the musical idea of going
the 'e' to the 'f#' and down to 'b', which
at concert pitch (w/o capo) is 'g' to 'a' to 'd'.
I recommend playing it this way for the first line, but it's up to you if you want to do
every time it appears.
