Sufjan Stevens - Fourth of July: chords

    Bm7        E           A      E
The evil it spread like a fever ahead
        D              E             D
It was night when you died, my firefly
 Bm7               E       A                   E
What could I have said to raise you from the dead?
         D          E                   D
Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?

Chorus:
          E         A
Well you do enough talk
 E         A      E          D
My little hawk, why do you cry?
          E            A             E         A
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?
        E         D
Or the Fourth of July?
                 Bm7
We’re all gonna die

Sitting at the bed with the halo at your head
Was it all a disguise, like junior high?
Where everything was fiction, future, and prediction
Now, where am I? My fading supply

Chorus:
"Did you get enough love, my little dove?
Why do you cry?
And I'm sorry I left, but it was for the best
Though it never felt right
My little Versailles"

The hospital asked, "Should the body be cast?"
Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth
Do you find it all right, my dragonfly?

Chorus:
          E           A
Shall we look at the moon
 E         A      E         D
My little loon, Why do you cry?
          E            A      E          A
Make the most of your life, while it is rife
      E      D
While it is light
          E         F#m
Well you do enough talk
C#m        F#m    E          D
My little hawk, why do you cry?
          E           F#m             C#m      F#m
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?
        E           D
Or the Fourth of July?
                  Bm7 E A E D E
We’re all gonna die
                  Bm7 E A E D E
We’re all gonna die
                  D
We’re all gonna die

                 Bm7 E D
We’re all gonna die - x4

We’re all gonna die
