Congratulations - MGMT
First tab ever, so don't be hatin' unless you want to. This is how I've been
playing it for a while, so it's pretty close.
Verse 1:
GDeadG/F# in the wEmateEm7r, Cit's not a C/Bpaid vacaAmtionAm4 Am
GThe G/F#sons and Emdaughters ofEm7 city Cofficials C/Battend demonsAmtrationsAm4 Am
GIt's G/F#hardly a Emsink or Em7swim when Call is C/Bwell if the Amticket sellAm4s Am
Break:
G G/F# Em Em7 C C/B Am
Verse 2:
GOuG/F#t with a EmwhimpeEm7r, Cit's not aC/B blaze of AmgloryAm4 Am
GYou look G/F#down from your Emtemple as Em7people Cendeavor to C/Bmake it a AmstoryAm4 Am
GAnd G/F#chisel the Emmarble Em7words that Call is C/Blost if it's never AmheardAm4 Am
Pre-Chorus:
G C G G7
Chorus:
CBut I've got someone to make reports
DThat tell me how my money's spent
CTo book my stays and draw my blinds
DSo I can't tell what's really there
DAnd all I need's a great big congratulations
Break x2: G G/F# Em Em7 C C/B Am
Continue playing the verse chords throughout verse three and four.
Verse 3:
I'll keep your dreams, you pay attention for me
As strange as it seems, I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me
The ground may be moving fast but I tied my boots to a broken mast
This break is slightly different: G G/F# Em Em/7 C C/B D C G
Verse 4:
The difference is clear, you throw it in your cauldron
Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn, Steinways and Baldwins
You start with a simple stock of all the waste and salt to taste
Pre-Chorus: G C G G7
Chorus:
CBut damn my luck and damn these friends
DThat keep on combing back their smiles
CI save my grace with half-assed guilt
DAnd lay down the quilt upon the lawn
DSpread my arms and soak up congratulations
Break until finish: G G/F# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am
I hope you have more fun playing it than I did typing it up,
play on mental mystics
