Congratulations chords by MGMT

so I had to tab it. Good job to whoever figured out
these lyrics.

These are the chords I refer to in the

  C7
e|--3----2-----0---------0----0----0-----1------0----------------------------|
B|--0----0-----0----3----1----1----1-----0------1----------------------------|
G|--0----0-----0----2----0----0----2-----0------3----------------------------|
D|--0----0-----2----0----2---------2-----0------2----------------------------|
A|--2----------2---------3----2----0-----2------3----------------------------|
E|--3----2-----0-------------------------3-----------------------------------|

The verse is just a simple chord progression:

*Note: The chords are pretty much above the exact syllables
    of each lyric.

Verse 1:

D
  Dead in the water
Am
It's not a paid vacation
C
  The sons and daughters of city officials
 Am
Attend demonstrations
D
  It's hardly a sink or swim
   Am
When all is well if the ticket sells

Break 1:
Am

Verse 2:

D
  Out with a wimper
Am
It's not a blaze of glory
Em
  You look down from your temple
  Am
As people endeavor to make it a story
D
  And chisel a marble word
  Am
But all is lost if it's never heard

Break 2:

G7

Chorus:

C
But I've got someone to make reports
D
That tell me how my money's spent
C
To book my stays and draw my blinds
D
So I can't see what's really there
D
And all I need's a great big congratulations

Am


Just repeat for the rest of the song:

Verse 3:

I'll keep your dreams
You pay attention for me
As strange as it seems
I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me
The ground may be moving fast
But I tied my boots to a broken mast

Break 1

Verse 4:

The difference is clear
You throw it in your cauldron
Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn
Steinways and Baldwins
You start with a simple stock of all the waste
And salt to taste

Break 2

Chorus 2:

But damn my luck and damn these friends
That keep on combing back their smiles
I save my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my arms and soak up congratulations
