Sufjan Stevens – Fourth Of July (Guitar)

    Am7        D           G        D
The evil it spread like a fever ahead

        C             D            C
It was night when you died, my firefly

 Am7               D          G               D
What could I have said to raise you from the dead?

         C         D                   C
Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?

          D         G
Well you do enough talk

D          G      D         C
My little hawk, why do you cry?

         D            G             D          G
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?

        D         C
Or the Fourth of July?

                  Am7
We’re all gonna die

Am7             D            G             D
Sitting at the bed with the halo at your head

       C          D                 C
Was it all a disguise, like Junior High

Am7                   D        G           D
Where everything was fiction, future, and prediction

C             D               C
Now, where am I? My fading supply

          D          G   
Did you get enough love, 

D         G      D         C
my little dove, Why do you cry?

        D       G            D           G
And I’m sorry I left, but it was for the best

          D          C
Though it never felt right

                   Am
My little Versailles

Am7           D                G       D
The hospital asked should the body be cast

       C         D                   C
Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky

Am7           D          G              D
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth

       C              D               C
Do you find it all right, my dragonfly?

         D           G
Shall we look at the moon

D         G      D         C
My little loon, Why do you cry?

         D            G     D           G
Make the most of your life, while it is rife

      D     C
While it is light

         D         Em
Well you do enough talk

Bm         Em     D          C
My little hawk, why do you cry?

        D            Em              Bm         Em
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?

       D           C
Or the Fourth of July?

                  Am7  D  G  D  C  D
We’re all gonna die

                  Am7  D  G  D  C  D
We’re all gonna die

                  C
We’re all gonna die

                  Am7  D  C
We’re all gonna die       (x4)
