This is the chords of Mariana Trench by Bright Eyes on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
C D5
Well they’d better save some space for me
Em F
In that growing cottage industry
G E Am
Where selfishness is currency
F
People spend more than they make
C D5
So I wrapped my head in bandages
Em F
From the string of happy accidents
G E Am
I guess maybe I asked for it
F
But who am I to say

[Pre-Chorus 1] Em The closing bell death tolls, Am G hear the market crash F A crying trader swears G C he’ll get out of the game Em The cowboy drinks himself to death, Am D/F# fresh out of rehab F G While they’re loading all the rifles on the range [Chorus 1] C Look up at that Everest F Look down in that Mariana Trench Am Look now as the crumbling 405 falls down, G oh when the big one hits C Look out for the plainclothes F Look out for what the wiretap knows Am Look out on the ever-widening G C money trail and where it goes

[Verse 2] C D5 It takes a lot of gall to try to please Em F These dehumanizing entities G E Am I befriended all my enemies F They had my back against the wall C D5 Oh a coward is what a coward does Em F I suppose maybe I always was G E Am But I’m sick of it, I’ve had enough F And now I’m ready for the war [Pre-Chorus 2] Em Am G The lion bows his head down to the ringmaster F G C G With the tightrope stretched so high above the crowd Em Am D/F# All these faces are contortionists, it must have hurt F G ’Cause they all looked as unhappy as a clown

[Chorus 2] C Look long at that Stonehenge F Look quick is it something you missed Am Look into that smoldering building’s G bombed out fog until it finally lifts C Look up at that big wave F Look down at your other brother’s grave Am Look hard for a harder something G to sacrifice, that’s what it takes That’s what it takes [Bridge] D5 G That’s what it takes, hmm D5 G That’s what it takes, ha D5 G That’s what it takes, ha D5 G Ha, ha, ha [Chorus 3] C Look up at that Everest F Look down in that Mariana Trench Am Look now as the crumbling 405 falls down, G oh when the big one hits C Look out for the plainclothes F Speak soft what the wiretap knows Am Look out on the ever-widening G money trail and where it goes C Where does it go?
