Architecture in Helsinki - Contact High
------------------------------
Key of F#, ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
Key change to A for the final chorus.
------------------------------
They keep it simple with the 3-chord progression, but you can keep things
interesting by sustaining, muting and changing your strumming pattern in
different parts, like they do in the song. Watch for the chords in brackets,
which I transcribed to match the cadences at the end of most of the verses.

INTRO:
F# - B - D#m - D#m
VERSE 1:
F# B D#m D#m
If one of these two walls could speak
F# B D#m D#m
I'd turn the lights down long enough to hit repeat (babe)
F# B
Right now my vision is gone and magic's to blame
D#m D#m
It's silent down here, hey I want to get loud again
F# B D#m D#m
You'll hold the thunder while I bring the rain
PRE-CHORUS:
F# B D#m D#m
I might be dancing doing nothing but I've had my share
F# B D#m (B - F#)
You've got a strange infatuation with the elements in the air
CHORUS:
F#
Contact high
B D#m
I'm done dreamin that we can fly
D#m F#
Am I guilty? Boy you decide
B D#m
I've got nothing to hide
VERSE 2:
F# B D#m D#m
Four letter words won't hold any sway (uh uh)
F# B D#m D#m
And in a paradise that shakes the word "romantic" to the bone
F# B D#m D#m
Mystical forces are circling me, while perfect nostalgia is dating the enemy
F# B
Lost in the ether with no one to blame
D#m (B) (G#m)
It's silent down here, maybe I want to get loud again
CHORUS:
F#
Contact high
B D#m
I'm done dreamin that we can fly
D#m F#
Am I guilty? Boy you decide
B D#m
I've got nothing to hide
D#m
(When we touch I get a)
CHORUS 2:
F#
Contact high
B D#m

Am I guilty? Boy you decide

I've got nothing to hide
