Vampire Weekend – I Stand Corrected   (Album: Vampire Weekend (2008))

[ Em   |  G  ]

You’ve been checking all my facts

And I admit I have been lax

In double-screening what I say

It wasn’t funny anyway

G   Em         C              G

  I … stand … corrected      x 2

No one cares when you are wrong

But I’ve been at this far too long

To act like that when we should be

    C         D       G

In perfect harmony

[CHORUS]

BRIDGE:

Em                   C                      G               Em

Lord knows I haven’t tried       I’ll take my stand

Am   C   D

One last time

Em                C                         G               Em

Forget the protocol                 I’ll take your hand

Am     C      D

Right in mine

[CHORUS]
