Keep The Car Running

by The Arcade Fire

Every night my dream's the same

Same old city with a different name

Men are coming to take me away

I don't know why, but I know I can't stay

/ C - / - - / Fadd9 - / C - / 

There's a weight that's pressing down

Late at night you can hear the sound

Even the noise you make when you sleep

Can't swim across a river so deep

    They know my name cause I told it to them

    But they don't know where and they don't know

    It's coming, when it's coming

    / Gsus4 C/B / Am7 Fadd9 / Gsus4 - -C / 

There's a fear I keep so deep

Knew its name since before I could speak

Aaaaah Aaaaah Aaaaah Aaaaah

    They know my name cause I told it to them

    But they don't know where and they don't know when

    It's coming, oh when but its coming    

    Keep the car running

    / Gsus4 C/B / Am7 Fadd9 / C Fadd9 - - / C - /

If some night I don't come home

Please don't think I've left you alone

The same place animals go when they die

You can't climb across a mountain so high

The same city where I go when I sleep

You can't swim across a river so deep

    They know my name cause I told it to them

    But they don't know where

    And they don't know when 

    It's coming, oh when is it coming?

Keep the car running

Keep the car running

Keep the car running
