Transatlanticism

A                      C#m                     D    F#m
the atlantic was born today and i'll tell you how:
A                      C#m              D    F#m
the clouds above opened up and let it out.
      A                             C#m
i was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
          D                 F#m
when the water filled every hole.
    A                                 C#m
and thousands upon thousands made an ocean,
                     D                F#m
making islands where no island should go.

oh no.

[Verse 2]

A                      C#m                     D           F#m
those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.
A                         C#m                  D           F#m
i thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.
    A                               C#m
the rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door have been
D                F#m
silenced forever more.
    A                                 C#m
the distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
         D                 F#m
it seems farther than ever before

oh no.

D           A            F#m          E
i need you so much closer (4x)

F#m        C#m            D           E
i need you so much closer (4x)
