Biography:
The National is a Brooklyn-based indie rock band formed in 1999, by friends from Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. The band's lyrics are written and sung by Matt Berninger in a distinctive, deep baritone. The rest of the band is composed of two pairs of brothers: Aaron Dessner (guitar, bass, keyboards), Bryce Dessner (guitar), Scott Devendorf (bass, guitar) and Bryan Devendorf (drums).
Their self-titled debut album"The National" (Brassland 2001) was recorded and released before they had played even a single show.

Standard Tuning - Capo 3rd Fret
Basically I just finger pick the chords until the chorus, which I strum,
in the actually song there are two guitars one is picking individual notes,
the other strumming. I think it sounds pretty good throughout if you pick
bass note with your thumb and and alternate to the 4th and 5th strings like:
e
b 0 0 1 1
g 0 0 2 2
d
a 0 0
E 3 3
