Stay Young Go Dancing Chords - Death Cab for Cutie

Here's my best shot at the strum pattern, too: F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2

{tab: D|--D-U--U-|D|--D|--D|--|D|--D-U--U-|D|--D|--D}

Also, putting the emphasis of your strums on the bass (deeper) notes on each Esus2 chord makes it sound nice. Specifically, on the three down-strums while playing Esus2, hit the low E and A strings more than the other strings.

Verse 1

F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 Life is sweet in the belly of the beast F# In the belly of the beast F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 And with her song in your heart, it can never bring you down F# F#sus2 It can never bring you do-own F# F#sus2

Verse 2

F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 Lost in a maze of a thousand rainy days F# Of a thousand rainy days F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 F# F#sus2 But when I heard her voice, oh it led me to the end F# F#sus2 Yes it led me to the end

Chorus

D#m A#m 'Cause when she sings I hear a symphony B F# And I'm swallowed in sound as it echoes through me D#m A#m I'm renewed, oh, how I feel alive! B B Through autumn's advancing, we'll stay young, go dancing

Final Chorus

D#m A#m 'Cause when she sings I hear a symphony B F# And I'm swallowed in sound as it echoes through me D#m A#m I'm renewed, oh, how I feel alive! B B Through winter's advancing, we'll stay young, go dancing Stay young, go dancing Stay young, go dancing (end on E chord)
