"You Are A Tourist" - Death Cab for Cutie
*The G/F# chord in the bridge isn't in the song exactly,
but I feel that it works nicely as a transition chord acoustically.
Obviously an optional chord to play.
D G A7
This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher
D A G
When there's a burning in your heart
D A G
An endless yearning in your heart
D
Build it bigger than the sun
G
Let it grow, let it grow
D A G
When there's a burning in your heart
D
Don't be alarmed
D G A7
This fire grows higher
D A G
When there's a doubt within your mind
D A G
Because you're thinking all the time
D
Framing rights into wrongs
G
Move along, move along
D A G
When there's a doubt within your mind
D A G
When there's a burning in your heart
D A G
And you think it'll burst apart
D
Or there's nothing to feel
G
Save the tears, save the tears
D A G
When there's a burning in your heart
Em Em7
And if you feel just like a tourist in the city you were born
G G/F#*
Then it's time to go
Em
And define your destination
Em7 G G/F#*
There's so many different places to call home
Em Em7
Because when you find yourself the villain in the story you have written
G G/F#*
It's plain to see
Em Em7
That sometimes the best intentions are in need of redemptions
G G/F#*
Would you agree?
A7 D
If so please show me
D G A7
This fire grows higher
D A G
When there's a burning in your heart
