The EPs and the albums by Beirut are largely the work of Zach Condon, a young Santa Fe, New Mexico native.  Condon has recorded before: when he was fifteen and under the name of Realpeople, he made an electronic record, fashioned after his love for The Magnetic Fields. Condon was a straight-A student until he dropped out at the age of 17 to travel Europe with his cousin in a drunken haze, cavorting and partying with the locals wherever he ended up.

Beirut est un groupe d'indie rock américain formé par Zach Condon.  En 2006, Beirut sort deux albums sur le label Ba Da Bing : Gulag Orkestar et Lon Gisland, désormais réunis sur une version longue de Gulag Orkestar. Beirut a aussi d'autres morceaux sur l'EP Pompeii, une chanson avec Calexico, et un titre (Venice) sur une compilation du magazine The Believer, et un autre titre sur la compilation Big Change: Songs for FINCA de Natalie Portman intitulé My Night With the Prostitute From Marseille.  

Beirut ist der Name einer US-amerikanischen Band um den Sänger Zachary Francis Condon aus Santa Fe, New Mexico. Ursprünglich ein Soloprojekt Condons formiert sich die Band 2005, um das Debütalbum Gulag Orkestar einzuspielen. Ihre Musik kombiniert Einflüsse des Balkans und Folk mit Elementen westlicher Popmusik und französischer Chansontradition.  Schon im Alter von 15 Jahren nimmt Zach Condon unter dem Namen The Real People ein an The Magnetic Fields orientiertes Album auf (The Joys of Losing Weight)...

Beirut es el nombre bajo el cual el joven músico de 25 años Zach Condon, nacido en Nuevo México, publica sus trabajos artísticos. Su primer álbum oficial bajo el nombre de Beirut fue editado gracias a la colaboración de Jeremy Barnes (Neutral Milk Hotel, A Hawk and a Hacksaw) y Heather Trost (A Hawk and a Hacksaw), en el cual combina elementos y sonidos de la música folk y, especialmente, de la proveniente de la Europa del Este.  

This song is in 3/4 time
There are a few confusing parts that you can pick up easily if you listen to it in
this song, so I'll start with getting those out of the way.  Okay, when Zach
Condon plays the Em chord to the F chord, he plays a little transition chord
during the last two beats of the second measure when the Em chord is being
played by lifting his middle finger off of the E string and onto the 3rd fret of the A
string.  Don't worry if this is confusing, it'll make sense.  He also switches from F
(4 beats long) to Fadd9 (1 beat long) and back to F (7 beats long).  Here's a tab to
explain more in depth if you don't get what I'm saying.  Keep in mind that the
numbers don't effect the beats and one beat is equal to --.

There is also a chord, C/E this chord looks like this on a tab.

Here's the song now, when the chords are with the words, switch chords when
you're singing the syllable that the chord letter is over.

You'll leave the light, your family may not wait, sir, keep on believing
 
        G                          C             F            C
Our parents rue the day they find us kneeling

Let them think what they may for they've good reason

G                   C             F             C            (Keep on playing)

                                          (Play last C chord for 3 measures and one beat)

Note:  At the end of the song, I find it to sound better if you just strum the A
string and a little of the E string, and at the very last strum, play all of the strings.

Thanks, that's all of it

 the bell gives way to a larger swell
 without my heart
 what can I do, oh

 and we grow fat
 on the charms of our idle dreary days
 seen the shadows grow
 see an ominous display
 with no alarm
 could we say we'd have expected this way
 under stars have died
 give incent to play

F Am repeat the whole way through.
On the first strum of each note hammer on the G string from open to the second fret.

Before changing chords play:

G|---3-2-0-2---|

As such:

E|---1-1---------------0-----------|
C|---0-0-x3----------1-1-x3--------|
G|-0h2-2---3-2-0-2-0h2-2---3-2-0-2-|


Repeat this for the whole song. Listen to song for strumming patterns.

Lyrics:
The times we had
Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow
Were not all bad
We put our feet just where they had, had to go
Never to go

The shattered soul
Following close but nearly twice as slow
In my good times
There were always golden rocks to throw
at those who admit defeat too late
Those were our times, those were our times

And I will love to see that day
That day is mine
When she will marry me outside with the willow trees
And play the songs we made
They made me so
And I would love to see that day
Her day was mine

My Night With The Prostitute From Marseille

March of the Zapotec & Realpeople: Holland

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah,

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E

A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song

to remind yourself that you forgot

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
