Patterns of Fairytales - The National


G, F, C

G, C, F, C x2


G              C         F           C                        
Tonight there isn't any light under your door
G            C                F           C                  
I guess you must be somewhere breathing
G              C                F                 C           
Where skin and everything still know what they are for
G            C               F        C                            
And blood remembers where to go


G          C                 F               C                
I fell in love with you, no matter what you say
G             C                F        C                     
But you were right about the reasons
G           C          F              C                       
To turn a magdeline into the month of May
G                       C           F     C                   
I should've known the magdeline was me


     G       C        F      C                                
So I'm turning on the stereo
     G   C            F      C                                
And I'm lining up the names
G        C      F          C           G, C, F, C                        
On the mixes I made before you
     G      C         F           C                               
And I'm turning into fairy tales
G    C              F       C                                 
With glitter and some glue
G       C      F     C        G   C  F   C                        
Everything we ever planned to ev--er do


G, C, F, C


G                        F              C                    
Tonight there isn't any light under your door
G                              F         C                   
I guess you must be somewhere breathing
G                             F               C             
In patterns unfamiliar to the one you're underneath
G                            F        C                      
I pinned those patterns in my coat


     G       C        F      C                                
So I'm turning on the stereo
     G      C         F           C                               
And I'm turning into fairy tales
      G         C      F      C                                
Yes I'm turning on the stereo
      G   C          F   C                                    
And I'm turning into you


G, C, F, C x7
