The National - Humiliation: chords

A#                  G#
I survived the dinner and the air went thinner
D#                 A#
I retired to the briars by the pool,
it gets so loud
A#                    G#
If I die this instant, taken from a distance
D#                            A#
They would probably list it down,
among other things 'round town

Fm             D#                     A#
Got my rings around me, I got baby to pound me
A#
I see stars and go weak, my baby cries
and lays me down
Fm                       D#
In the skies over black Venice,
I see eyes of a white menace
A#
The surprise of the week,
is that I never heard the sound

And all the L.A. women
Fall asleep while swimmin'
I got paid to fish 'em out
And then one day I lost the job
And I cried a little
I got fried a little
Then she laid her eyes on mine
And she said, "Babe, you're better off"

I got my rings around me
I got baby to pound me
I see stars and go weak
My baby cries and lays me down
In the skies over black Venice
I see eyes of a white menace
The surprise of the week

Chorus:
A#m     G#     D#        A#
Tunnel vision lights my way
A#m     G#     D#     A#
Lead a little life today

A#                                  G#
As the free-fall advances, I'm the moron who dances,
D#             A#
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
A#                            G#
I was teething on roses, I was in guns and noses,
D#             A#
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
          Fm                    D#        A#
Under the withering white skies of humiliation
          Fm                    D#        A#
Under the withering white skies of humiliation

Chorus:
Tunnel vision lights my way
Leave a little life today
Tunnel vision lights my way
Leave a little life today

She wore blue velvet
Said she can't help it
She wore blue velvet
Said she can't help it
She wore blue velvet
Said she can't help it
