---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rest Of Years - The National ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: adslam3 A very easy song off of the Virginia EP. If you want the strum pattern for the verses then go to the bottom of the tab. NOTES: This song is mainly power chords (G5, Bb5, and C5). The only time that you use all the strings are for the prechorus and last chorus CHORDS (That I use for this - find what work best for you) E A D G B e G5: 3--5--5--3--x--x Bb5: 6--8--8--7--x--x C5: 8--10-10-9--x--x Gm: 3--5--5--3--3--3 Bb: 6--8--8--7--6--6 C: 8--10-10-9--8--8 VERSE 1 G5 Bb5 I'm keeping you in mind C5 G5 For the rest of years, for the rest of years G5 Bb5 In your watery eyes I'm gonna to rest all day C5 In your watery eyes I'm gonna to rest all day G5 In your watery eyes I'm gonna to rest some day In your watery eyes G5 Bb5 Tell the saint I'm gonna be a little late C5 G5 Drawing lines around the river for the rest of years PRECHORUS Gm Bb C All in time, but you fade away from Gm Bb C G5 All in time, but you fade away from me CHORUS G5 Bb5 They can't see what I can see Turned away from me C5 I can turn everything around G5 I can turn everything around G5 Bb5 They can't see what I can see Turned away from me C5 I can turn everything around G5 I can turn everything around VERSE 2 G5 Bb5 I heard you in my sleep C5 G5 For the rest of years, for the rest of years G5 Bb5 So lonely, I'm trying to hear you C5 So lonely, I'm trying to hear you G5 So lonely, I'm trying to hear you So lonely, I'm PRECHORUS Gm Bb C All in time, but you fade away from Gm Bb C G5 All in time, but you fade away from me love CHORUS Gm Bb They can't see what I can see Turned away from me C I can turn everything around Gm I can turn everything around Gm Bb They can't see what I can see Turned away from me C I can turn everything around G5 I can turn everything around ENDING G5 Bb5 They can't see what I can see Turned away from me C5 I can turn everything around G5 I can turn everything around Gm Bb C All in time, but you fade away from Gm Bb C All in time, but you fade away from Gm Bb C Gm All in time, but you fade away from me love VERSE strum pattern -Use whatever finger placement of G5, Bb5, and C5 you want.
