The National

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.

The National - Sleep All Summer ( Crooked Fingers Cover )

It's my first tab, but I think it should be right.


A E D E
Weary sun, sleep tonight, go crashing into the ocean
A E D E
Cut the line that ties the tide and moon, ancient and blue
A E D E
We take our empty hearts and fill them up with broken things
A E D E
To hang on humming wire like cheap lamps down a dead end street

(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
Bm E Bm E
And every time we turn away it hits me like a tidal wave
A E D
I would change for you but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man
A E D
Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand
E A
And hold it in your hands again
A E
Cold ways kill cool lovers
D E
Strange ways we used each othe
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
A E
There ain't no way we're gonna find another
D E
The way we sleep all summer
A D A E
So why won't you fall back in love with me?
A E D E
Combing over Broken Cross I held on you
A E D E
Haunted by the ghost of something new

A E D E
Curtains fall, fashions fade, an endless summer over
A E D E
Another tide to launch an autumn moon over the dunes
A E D E
There must be a better way to pull a whole apart To keep a world from caving in
A E D E
Another way to while away from you, frozen and blue

(Close your weary eyes until the wintertime)
Bm E Bm E
But everytime we turn away it surges like a tidal wave
A E D
I would change but, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man
A E D
Give the ocean what I took from you so one day you could find it in the sand
E A
And hold it in your hands again
A E
Cold ways kill cool lovers
D E
Strange way we use each other
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
A E
There ain't no way we're gonna find another
D E
The way we sleep all summer
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
A D A E
Why won't you fall back in love with me?
