Postal Service — The District Sleeps Alone Tonight Chords
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— The District Sleeps Alone Tonight — The Postal Service ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Tabbed by: cybergeek_G Email: cybergeek_g@hotmail.com Tuning: E A D G B E Note: Due to the nature of the vocal rhythm (which is highly syncopated), this TAB is organized in a manner that is easier to read. Each vocal line is divided to correspond to each line of music. I advise that you listen to the song for the rhythm of the vocals. Intro ————— C — Dm — Am — Am (x2) Verse ————— C — Dm — Am — Am (x4) Smeared black ink... your palms are sweaty And i'm barely listening to last demands I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath Interlude ————————— F — C — G — G (x4) Where I am... [A line without vocals] Where I am... [A line without vocals] Verse ————— C — Dm — Am — Am (x6) I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest That tells your new friends i am a visitor here... I am not permanent And the only thing keeping me dry is Chorus —————— (Where I am)[Repeats throughout chorus] F — C — G — G (x4) You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with your door key explaining that i am just visiting And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Bridge —————— C — C — Dm — Dm [No vocals] G — G — Am — Am D.C. sleeps alone tonight C — Dm — Am — Am (x8) [No vocals for 8 lines] Chorus —————— (Where I am)[Repeats throughout chorus] F — C — G — G (x10) You seem so so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with your door key explaining that i am just visiting And i am finally seing why i was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Outro ————— F — C — G — G (x2) F ===============================================================================
