The National - American Mary: chords

D                     A
Give my jewels to the army
    Bm        Em    G
My silverware and jeans
Give my love to your family
Tell them anything

Give yourself to anyone
Give yourself away
Don't be a nightingale
For anyone's space to fill

C     D    C              D
If I could, I'd be your star again
C D                       Asus4
Fall across your falling sky

D   A
It takes a lot of little rain
Bm Em                  D     Bm Em
To make you feel like nothing
D         A                      Bm
Anything, anything you care to do
             Em                    D
Do to me for everything I did for you
 Bm   Em
Nothing

I didn't try to take your love away
I just never knew I had it

Chorus:
Em        C                D
There is nothing you can say
   G     D/F#    Em     C
To ever make me want you
  D      G D/F#
American...
There is nothing you can say
To ever make me leave you
  D
American...
American Mary

If you kiss me, kiss me with your silver eyes
Don't look at me like someone you don't recognize
I didn't try to do this

Your arms around my shoulder blades
Are useless

Chorus

American Mary
