The National – Demons chords

Intro: G D

[Verse 1]
GWhen I think of you in the city
DThe sight of you among the sites
GI get this sudden sinking feeling
DOf a man about to fly
CNever kept me up before
DNow I've been awake for days
CI can't fight it anymore
DI'm going through an awkward phase

GI am secretly in love with
DEveryone that I grew up with
GDo my crying underwater
DI can't get down any farther
CAll my drowning friends can see
DNow there is no running from it
CIt's become the crux of me
DI wish that I could rise above it

[Chorus]
           GBut I stay down
        DWith my demons
       GI stay down
        DWith my demons

[Verse 2]
GPassing buzzards in the sky
DAlligators in the sewers
GI don't even wonder why
DHide among the under views
CHuddle with them all night long
DThe worried talk to god goes on
CI sincerely tried to love her
DWish that I could rise above her

[Chorus]
           GBut I stay down
        DWith my demons
       GI stay down
        DWith my demons
       CI stay down
        DWith my demons
       CI stay down
        DWith my demons

[Verse 3]
EmCannot stay here I can't sleep
DOn the floor
EmDrink the blood and hang the palms
DOn the door
Em                            DDo not think I'm going places anymore
Em                        DWanna see the sun come up above New York
    AmOh, everyday I start so great
DThen the sunlight dims
AmLess I've learned
DThe more I see the pythons and the limbs
AmDo not know what's wrong with me
DSours in the cup
AmWhen I walk into a room
DI do not light it up
F*ck

[Chorus]
          EmSo I stay down
        DWith my demons
       EmI stay down
        DWith my demons
       AmI stay down
        DWith my demons
       AmI stay down
        DWith my demons
