Chords relative to Capo on 4
The chords are strange. They are as far as I understand:
e-(0)- -x- -x- -2-|
b--3-- -3- -3- -2-|
g--4-- -4- -4- -3-|
d--4-- -2- -2- -4-|
a--2-- -0- -4- -4-|
E--x-- -x- -x- -2-|
For the verse. And:
e-(0)- -3- -2- -2-|
b--3-- -3- -3- -2-|
g--4-- -0- -2- -3-|
d--4-- -0- -0- -4-|
a--2-- -2- -x- -4-|
E--x-- -3- -x- -2-|
For the chorus. I will call the modified A and C#, A* and C#* just to save me typing
None of this is based on me figuring anything out. I just put to a tab what TecumsehBand
in this video:

I didn't post the finger picking pattern because honestly i don't know it. You'd have to
to Tecumseh about it. Strumming the chords is enough for me. Thanks to Tecumseh.
Intro:
Bm A* C#* X8
C#* C#*
Bm A* C#* X2
Bm A* C#*
I traveled though the atmosphere
Bm A* C#*
as a wall of feedback climbed
C#* C#*
The pegs were gold, the band was old,
A* C#*
they played in half time
Bm A* C#*
Now every dream gets whittled down
Bm A* C#*
just like every fool gets wise
C#* C#*
You will never reap of any seed
deprived of sunlight
Bm A* C#* X2
So I have become the Middleman
The gray areas are mine
The in-between, the absentee
A* C#*
Is a beautiful disguise
Bm A* C#*
So I keep my footlights shining bright
Bm A* C#*
just like I keep my exits wide
C#* C#*
'Cause I never know when it's time to go,
A* C#*
it's too crowded now inside
Bm A* C#*
The dead can hide beneath the ground
Bm A* C#*
and the birds can always fly
C#* C#*
But the rest of us do what we must
in constant compromise
Bm A* C#* X2
So I have become the Middleman
The gray areas are fine
The "I don't know," the "maybe so"
Is the only real
Is the only true
Is the only real
Bm A* C#*

Continue to the end. Great song. Love Bright Eyes. Again, thank you Tecumseh.
