Version 1------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - The Postal Service ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: cybergeek_G Email: Tuning: E A D G B E [Intro] C Dm Am Am C Dm Am Am [Verse 1] C Dm Am Am Smeared black ink C Dm Am Am your palms are sweaty and I'm barely listening C Dm Am Am to last demands C Dm Am Am I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath [Chorus 1] F C G G Where I am... F C G G F C G G Where I am... F C G G [Verse 2] C Dm Am Am I'll wear my badge... C Dm Am Am A vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest C Dm Am Am That tells your new friends C Dm Am Am I am a visitor here... I am not permanent C Dm Am Am And the on-ly thing C Dm Am Am keep-ing me dry is [Chorus 2] F C G G (Where I am...) You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex F C G G (Where I am...) A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting F C G G (Where I am...) And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving F C G G Why I was the one worth leaving [Bridge] C C Dm Dm G G Am Am D.C. sleeps alone tonight [Solo] C F Am Am (x8) F C G G (x10) [Chorus 2] F C G G (Where I am...) You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex F C G G (Where I am...) A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting F C G G (Where I am...) And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving F C G G Why I was the one worth leaving [Chorus 3] F C G G (Where I am...) The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights F C G G (Where I am...) And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening F C G G (Where I am...) And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving F C G G Why I was the one worth leaving [Outro] F C G G Why I was the one worth leaving F C G G Why I was the one worth leaving F C G G x2 F
