Fourth of July Sufjan Stevens
[Verse 1]
[Am]The evil it s[Bm]pread like a f[C]ever a[D]head
It was n[C]ight when you d[Em]ied, my firefly
[Am]What could I have [Bm]said to r[C]aise you from the d[D]ead?
Oh could [C]I be the s[Em]ky on the Fourth of J[F]uly?
[Cborus]
Well you d[Am]o enough t[Em]alk
M[Am]y little ha[Em]wk, wh[Am]y do you c[C]ry?
Tell me w[Am]hat did you l[Em]earn from the [Am]Tillamook [Em]burn?
Or the F[Am]ourth of J[C]uly?
We're all gonna [Am]die[Bm] [C] [D] [C] [Em]
[Verse 2]
[Am]Sitting at the [Bm]bed with the h[C]alo at your [D]head
Was it a[C]ll a d[Em]isguise, like Junior High
[Am]Where everything was f[Bm]iction, f[C]uture, and p[D]rediction
[C]Now, where am I[Em]? My fading su[F]pply
[Cborus]
Did you get e[Am]nough [Em]love, [Am]my little [Em]dove
[Am]Why do you [C]cry?
And I'm [Am]sorry I [Em]left, but it [Am]was for the [Em]best
Though it [Am]never felt r[C]ight
My little Versai[Am]lles[Bm] [C] [D] [C] [Em]
[Verse 3]
The h[Am]ospital [Bm]asked should the [C]body be [D]cast
Before[C] I say goodb[Em]ye, my star in the sky
[Am]Such a funny th[Bm]ought to [C]wrap you up in c[D]loth
Do you f[C]ind it all [Em]right, my d[F]ragonfly?
[Cborus]
Shall we l[Am]ook at the m[Em]oon, [Am]my little [Em]loon
[Am]Why do you c[C]ry?
Make the m[Am]ost of your [Em]life, [Am]while it is r[Em]ife
[Am]While it is l[C]ight
Well you [Am]do enough[Em] talk
[Am]My little [Em]hawk, w[Am]hy do you c[C]ry?
Tell me w[Am]hat did you l[Em]earn from the T[Am]illamook [Em]burn?
Or the [Am]Fourth of [C]July?
Am Bm C D C Em (x2) end on Am
We're all gonna die
