Song: A Cold Night Close to the End
Artist: Said the Whale 
Album: Islands Disappear (2009)

I was really disappointed to find that the chords for my favorite Said the Whale 
song were not online.  I checked everywhere, and I'm certain that I'm the first to 
get these chords online.  I double checked this with a video of a live 
performance, and these chords are 100% accurate.  Enjoy, everyone.



(Standard tuning with capo on 2)

CBe (x32010@1)sure to be quiet
