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: G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am Dead in the water, it's not a paid vacation G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am The sons and daughters of city officials attend demonstrations G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am It's hardly a sink or swim when all is well if the ticket sells Break: G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Verse 2: G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am Out with a whimper, it's not a blaze of glory G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am You look down from your temple as people endeavor to make it a story G G/f# Em Em7 C C/B Am Am4 Am And chisel the marble words that all is lost if it's never heard Pre-Chorus: G C G G7 Chorus: C But I've got someone to make reports D That tell me how my money's spent C To book my stays and draw my blinds D So I can't tell what's really there D And 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: C But damn my luck and damn these friends D That keep on combing back their smiles C I save my grace with half-assed guilt D And lay down the quilt upon the lawn D Spread 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
