Текст песни The National - Lean

Lean
The National
The National's contribution to "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" soundtrack.

In  Dorian.

I listened as well as I could, to the lyrics and especially to the chords. The chords
are very basic and the strumming pattern is dead easy. Basically, it's ||:
DOWN-up-down-DOWN-up-down-DOWN-up :||, or, ||: DOWN-up-down-DOWN-DOWN-up-down-DOWN :||.
It depends how long the chord lasts.

I'll probably be wrong about many of the lyrics. Feel free to correct me on them if I'm wrong.

   Everybody needs a prayer and needs a friend,
                              CMaj7       
everybody know's the world's about to end.
Everybody wants to know what the end will be,
                          CMaj7         
everybody wants to look before they lean. [or "leap." Not sure.]

   Everybody wants a sip of wine to drink,
                              CMaj7        
everybody wants a little more time to think.
Everybody needs a reason why they'd run,
                                       CMaj7     
everybody wants to know what they're runnin' from.

   And I can see your fever's on the rise,
                      CMaj7      
I can see the waters in your eyes.
And I can see the way the water leads,
                              CMaj7  
love will lead us all to smithereens.

                                                    CMaj7
   Dying is easy, I believe my love, and my love relieves me.
                                                    CMaj7
   Dying is easy, I believe my love, and my love relieves me.

   You said it was everything.
AaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaa...

   Everybody takes forever to fall asleep,
                               CMaj7         
everybody's got a lot they don't want to keep.
Everybody needs a prayer and needs a friend,
                              CMaj7       
everybody know's the world's about to end.

   And I can see your fever's on the rise,
                      CMaj7      
I can see the waters in your eyes.
And I can see the way the water leads,
                              CMaj7  
love will lead us all to smithereens.

                                                    CMaj7
   Dying is easy, I believe my love, and my love relieves me.
                                                    CMaj7
   Dying is easy, I believe my love, and my love relieves me.

   You said it was everything.
AaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaa...

   And I'm gonna let it in.
AaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaa...
