The National - Fake Empire: chords

C                  F
Stay out super late tonight
 G
Picking apples, making pies
 C                     F           G
Put a little something in our lemonade
And take it with us

Chorus:
               Am      F      G
we’re half-awake in a fake empire
               Am      F      G
we’re half-awake in a fake empire

Tiptoe through our shiny city
With our diamond slippers on
Do our gay ballet on ice
Bluebirds on our shoulders

Chorus

Turn the light out, say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once
It's hard to keep track of you
falling through the sky

Chorus
