The National - The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness: chords

        Fm                    A#
Maybe I listen more than you think
           Cm                A#
and I can tell that somebody sold you
              Fm               A#
We said we’ve never let anyone in
             Cm           A#
We said we’d only die of lonely secrets

Chorus:
G#         A#              D#
The system only dreams in total darkness
            G#
Why are you hiding from me?
           A#                 D#
We’re in a different kind of thing now
                  G#
All night you’re talking to God

I thought that this would all work out after a while
Now you're saying that
I'm asking for too much attention
Also no other faith is light enough for this place
We said we'd only die of lonely secrets

Chorus

G#           A#
I cannot explain it
D#         G#
Any other, any other way
G#           A#
I cannot explain it
D#         G#
Any other, any other way

Chorus

And I cannot explain it, oh
Any other, any other way
I cannot explain it, oh
Any other, any other way
I can't explain it, oh
Any other, any other way
I can't explain it, oh
Any other, any other way
