Hard To Get Around The Wind composed by Alex Turner for Richard Ayoade's film 'Submarine' (2011). Property of EMI
Intro - C Dm G C
C
It's like you're trying to get to heaven in a hurry
and the queue was shorter than you thought it'd be
Dm G C
and doorman says you need to get a wristband
C
You got a lift between the pitfalls
but you're looking like you're low on energy
Dm G C
Did you get out and walk to insure you'd miss the quicksand
F C
Looking for a new place to begin
Dm G
Feeling like its hard to understand
C C7
But as long as you still keep peppering the pill
F D7
you'll find a way to spit it out again
C G Am
and even when you know the way it's gonna blow
F G C
it's hard to get around the wind
C Dm G C (x2)
C
Stretching out the neck on your evening
Trying to even out some deficit
Dm G C
But its sabre-toothed multi-ball confusion
C
And you can shriek until you're hollow
or whisper it the other way
Dm G C
Trying to save the youth without putting your shoes on
F C
looking for a new place to begin
Dm G
feeling like its hard to understand
C C7
but as long as you still keep peppering the pill
F D7
you'll find your way to spit it out again
C G Am
and even when you know the way it's gonna blow
F G
it's hard to get around the wind
Bridge - C G Am F G C

C
I can hear you through my window
But I'm never quite sure who is who
Dm G C
But they want the world on a desert spoon
C
It always sounds like they're fighting
or as if that's what they're about to do
Dm G C
It might not hurt now but it's gonna hurt soon
