Transatlanticism

	  		     A C#m D F#m      (2x)      E      

     A                         C#m                  D      F#m      
The Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how. 
     A                      C#m             D      F#m    E      
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    E      
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. 
         E         
Oh no. 

     D A F#m E      (4x) 

     A                     C#m                     D          F#m      
Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats. 
     A                        C#m                    D        F#m   E      
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat. 
     A                                    C#m                   
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing floodlands to your door 
               D                F#m       E      
Have been 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 
        A      
Oh no. 

  
   D                       A  F#m  E      
I need you so much closer {x4} 
     F#m                    C#m  D  E      
I need you so much closer  
     F#m                  Bm   D  A  F#m  E      
I need you so much closer  

     D  A  F#m  E       (15x) 

     F#m                    C#m  D  E      
I need you so much closer  
     F#m                  Bm   D  A  F#m  E      
I need you so much closer  
 
     D  A  F#m  E       (2x) 

             D       A   F#m  E         
So come on, come on {x4}
