---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tall Saint - The National ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: adslam3 I figured this out without a capo originally so I had to play around to find a good pitch. Capo on 4 sounds really close. I'm not sure about the C to start the chorus, but to differentiate between verse and chorus I do one hammer-on the D string during the C chord. CAPO ON 4 INTRO Am C Am C VERSE 1 Am C Keep your legs from shaking, fill your eyes with new tears, Am C Don't ask questions, you don't know your name, Am C Something for everyone, try to win prizes, Am C Stay young and quiet.
