The New Pornographers - All For Swinging You Around
From: Electric Version (2003)
Thanks to all who have put up NP tabs. I felt like
I should give something back. Feel free to email
me any corrections (bworlow@yahoo.com).
The E(VII) may not be exactly right, but it sounds
approximately correct if played as X755XX. I usually
play the B-chord that follows the E(VII) back down at
the 2nd fret.
Intro
F# G# B C#
F# G# B C#
F# G# B C#
Exploding international, the scenes, the sounds,
F# G# B C#
And famously the feeling that you can't squeeze 'round,
E(VII) B F# C#
While tearing off another page of loose change outrage.
E(I)B F# C#
It's another perfect day until the night shows.
F# G# B C#
Exploding international, the wind did howl.
F# G# B C#
The sky above was thick with rings of smoke and clouds,
E(VII) B F# C#
And hanging on the bleeding end of conscious, who's this?
E(I) B F#C# G# B
Was there anything I missed, as far as you know? As far as you know?
C#F# B C#
Was it all for swinging you around?
C#F# B C#
Was it all for swinging you around?
[Repeat Intro]
F# G# B C#
Exploding international, the sun, the sights,
F# G# B C#
The moments you are viewing through a beam of light,
E(VII) B F# C#
Propel you through the golden age. We crash-land the first page
E(I) B F# C# G# B
On a crumbling world stage, into the front rows, into the front rows.
C# F# B C#
All for swinging you around.
C# F# B C#
All for swinging you around.
Bridge
G#m F# B
G#m F# B
G#m F# B
And off your feet, all the love you found, spinning 'round.
G#m F# B
And off your feet, all the love you found, spinning 'round.
G#m F# B
And off your feet, all the love you found, spinning 'round.
F# C#E(I) F# B
Spinning 'round, spinning 'round.
F# G# B C#
We're twisting incognito with no time, can't talk,
F# G# B C#
Can't tell if this is fantasy or culture shock,
E(VII) B F# C#
Or remnants of a golden age that's near mint unplayed,
E(I) B F# C# G# B
Or a welcome overstayed beneath the lightshow, beneath the lightshow.
C# F# B C#
All for swinging you around.(x6)
