Turtleneck chords by The National

verse 1
F       Ab        F      Ab
Oh my Mother, let your daughter dance with me
F      Ab            F       Ab
I'd like to spin her wild around the cottonwood tree
    Bbm         Dbm        Bbm
There's something about her eyes, I think her roots are rotten
F        Ab          F     Abadd13
This must be the reason she wears her hair up in knots, oh no

Pre-Chorus
F           Ab
This is so embarrassing
F         Ab
Ah, we're pissing fits
Fm             F         Ab
Crying on our doorsteps in t-shirts loose and ripped
Bb               Bbm
Some of them so out of style I cannot save them
F                Ab
They'll just get whatever my salvation gave them

C
Keep the weed next to the bed
Bb
Light the water, check for lead
C
Dim the lights a little lower
Bb
Hide your backbone, shrug your shoulders
C
Give the gift that fits your head
Bb               F Ab F Ab
You have to get this turtleneck

verse 2
  Fm                    F        Ab
The poor, they leave their cellphones in the bathrooms of the rich
       F        Ab    F     Ab
And when they try to turn them off everything they switch to
     Bb              Bb     Ab
Is just another man, in shitty suits, everybody's cheering for
F        Ab        Fm
This must be the genius we've been waiting years for, oh no

Pre-Chorus
F           Ab
This is so embarrassing
F         Ab
Ah, we're pissing fits
Fm             F         Ab
Crying on our doorsteps in t-shirts loose and ripped
Bb               Bbm
Some of them so out of style I cannot save them
F                Ab
They'll just get whatever my salvation gave them

C
Keep the weed next to the bed
Bb
Light the water, check for lead
C
Dim the lights a little lower
Bb
Hide your backbone, shrug your shoulders
C
Give the gift that fits your head
Bb
