Diane Young chords by Vampire Weekend

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

Capo 2

These lyrics are on the official VW site so they're definitely correct. The other tabs
here are also correct but it's much easier with Capo on 2.
Chords in the chorus (Baby baby baby baby ride on...) are optional as the song has drums
only at those points.
The noisy A augmentedA chord part can be played by sliding an A augmentedA chord down from fret 12 to its
original position.

A augmentedA
You torched a Saab like a pile of leaves

I'd gone to find some better wheels
E MajorE
Four five meters running round the bend
A augmentedA
When the government agents surround you again

D MajorD
If Diane Young won't change your mind,
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time

A augmentedA
Out of control but you're playing a role

Do you think you can go til the 18th hole
      E MajorE
Or will you flip-flop the day of the championship
    A augmentedA
Try to go it alone on your own for a bit

D MajorD
If Diane Young won't change your mind
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time

D MajorD
Baby baby baby baby ride on
A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on
D MajorD
Baby baby baby it's a light on
A augmentedA
Baby baby baby it's a lifetime
D MajorD
Baby baby baby baby ride on
A augmentedA
Time time time time time
D MajorD              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time
E MajorE     A augmentedA
Oh let it go

D MajorD
If Diane Young won't change your mind
E MajorE              A augmentedA  D MajorD E MajorE
Baby baby baby baby ride on time

A augmentedA
Irish and proud baby naturally

But you got the luck of a Kennedy
  E MajorE
So grab the wheel and keep holding it tight
      A augmentedA
Til you're tottering off into that good night

D MajorD
If Diane Young won't change your mind
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time

D MajorD
Baby baby baby baby ride on
A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on
D MajorD
Baby baby baby it's a light on
A augmentedA
Baby baby baby it's a lifetime
D MajorD
Baby baby baby baby ride on
A augmentedA
Time time time time time
D MajorD              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time

A augmentedA
Nobody knows what the future holds

And it's bad enough just getting old
E MajorE
Live my life in self-defense
  A augmentedA
You know I love the past cause I hate suspense

D MajorD
If Diane Young won't change your mind
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Baby baby baby baby ride on time
