[INTRO]

[B] [A6] [B] [Eadd9] [Amaj7] [B] [A6] [Eadd9]

[VERSE 1]

[B]The first to put a simple truth in [A6]words

Binds the [B]world in a feeling all famil[Eadd9]iar

'Cause [Amaj7]everybody owns the great i[B]deas

And it f[A6]eels like there's a big one round the c[Eadd9]orner

CHORUS: (same chords as first verse)

An[B]tenna up and out into New [A6]York

Some[B]where in all that talk is all the an[Eadd9]swers

And [Amaj7]oh, my giddy aunt, New York can t[B]alk

It's the [A6]modern Rome where folk are nice to [Eadd9]Yoko

[VERSE 2]

[B]Every bone of rivet steel

Each [A6]corner stone and angle

Jenga [B]jut and rusted water tower

[Eadd9]Pillar post and sign

Every [Amaj7]painted line and battered ladder[B] building in this town

Sings a [A6]life of proud endeavour and the [Eadd9]best that man can be

[VERSE 3]

[B]Me I see a city and I h[A6]ear a million voices

Planning, d[B]rilling, welding, carrying their [Eadd9]fingers to the nub

Reaching [Amaj7]down into the ground

Stretching [B]up into the sky

Why?

Be[A6]cause they can


They did and do

So [Eadd9]you and I could live together

[B] [A6] [B] [Eadd9] [Amaj7] [B] [A6] [Eadd9] [B]

[CHORUS]

Oh my god, New York can [A6]talk

Some[B]where in all that talk is all the a[Eadd9]nswers

[Amaj7]Everybody owns the great i[B]deas

And it f[A6]eels like there's a big one round the c[Eadd9]orner

[B] Oh my god, New York can [A6]talk

Some[B]where in all that talk is all the a[Eadd9]nswers

[Amaj7]Everybody owns the great's i[B]deas

And it [A6]feels like there's a big one round the [Eadd9]corner

[B] Oh my god, New York can [A6]talk

Some[B]where in all that talk is all the ans[Eadd9]wers

[Amaj7]Everybody owns the great's i[B]deas

And it [A6]feels like there's a big one round the c[Eadd9]orner

The [B]desire in the patchwork [A6]symphony

The d[B]esire like a distant [Eadd9]storm

For [Amaj7]love

Did it [B]come from me

'Cause it [A6]feels like there's a big one round the [Eadd9]corner

[B] Oh my god, New York can t[A6]alk

Some[B]where in all that talk is all the an[Eadd9]swers

[Amaj7]Everybody owns the great i[B]deas

And it f[A6]eels like there's a big one round the c[Eadd9]orner

OUTRO:

[B] The way the day[A6] begins

[B] Decides the shade of e[Eadd9]verything

[Amaj7] But the way it ends depends on if you're [B]home

For [A6]every soul a pillow and a [Eadd9]window, please

In the m[A6]odern Rome where folk are nice to [Eadd9]Yoko

[B] [A6] [B]

//////

And that's it. It's a really nice simple song and one of Elbow's best, in my
opinion. I think this tab is pretty accurate but there might be some mistakes in
the timing of chords but it's not too difficult to figure out.

Thanks. :)
