The National - Mistaken for Strangers: chords

            F/A                   F/A#
You have to do it running but you do everything
that they
F/C                  Csus4
ask you to cause you don’t mind seeing
    F/A                  F/A#
yourself in a picture as long as you look
    F/C                 Csus4
faraway, as long as you look removed

F/A               F/A#
showered and blue-blazered,
 F/C                Csus4
fill yourself with quarters
F/A               F/A#
showered and blue-blazered,
 F/C                Csus4
fill yourself with quarters

Chorus:
           Dm                          F
You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends
          A#                           F
when you pass them at night under the silvery,
silvery
 A#                     F              Am
citibank lights, arm in arm in arm and eyes
and eyes glazing under
        Gm                     F
Oh you wouldn’t want an angel watching over.
    A#                    F
Surprise, surprise, they wouldn’t wannna watch
  A#                  F
another uninnocent, elegant fall into the
   Am
unmagnificent lives of adults

Make up something to believe in your heart of hearts
So you have something to wear on your
sleeve of sleeves
So you swear you just saw a feathery woman
Carry a blindfolded man through the trees

Showered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters
Showered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters
