Sufjan Stevens - The Mistress Witch from McClure (or, The Mind That Knows Itself): chords

F#                     B
And the winter moves about
   D#m 		                 C#
Illinois, when my sister picks a fight
with the Alexander
F#                           B
Boy and my father locks the car
         D#m            	       B
by the store, still we figure out the keys
and follow him once more

Chorus:
B      F#                     C#
Oh my God. We see it on the floor
		  G#                       B
The woman on the bed. The ankle brace she wore
	     F#                         C#
Stones and sled. It could've been some other
	               G#
The mind that knows itself has a mind to say the
B
other
	    F#                      C#
But we run back, scratching at the door
C#
Scratching at the door

If I'm hiding in the sleeves of my coat
When my father runs undressed,
he's pointing at my throat
And my brother has a fit in the snow
And the traffic stops for miles,
we take him by the elbow

Chorus:
Oh my God (oh my God), the shuffling
at the floor (no one came)
A mind that knows itself (to our side)
is a mind that knows much more
(to carry us away from danger)
So we run back (oh my God),
scrambling for cover (no one came)
A mind that knows (to our side)
itself has a mind to kill the other
(to carry us away from danger)

Oh my God
You left us now for dead
You left us now for dead
