Eugene - Sufjan Stevens | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
E      F#add11         B/D#
 Light struck from the lemon tree
Aadd9             G#m         F#add11          E                 B
     What if I’d  never seen      hysterical light from Eugene?
E/B        B
   Lemon yogurt
F#/A#          G#m/D#         F#add11/C#
    Remember I pulled at your shirt   
                                  E/B
I dropped the ashtray on the floor
                    B
I just wanted to be near you

[Verse 2]
---------------------
E        F#add11       B/D#
 Emerald Park, wonders never cease
Aadd9                  G#m         F#add11
     The man who taught  me to swim
                  E            B
He couldn't quite say my first name
E/B         B        F#/A#         G#m/D#      F#add11/C#
   Like a Father, he led community water on my head    
                        E/B
And he called me “Subaru”
                      B
And now, I want to be near you

[Chorus]
---------------------
B      F#7/A#   G#m  F#       E
 Since I    was old enough to speak
     B/D#              F#add11
I've said it with alarm
B     F#7/A#  G#m    F#           E
 Some part of me was lost in your sleeve
          B/D#         F#add11/C#
Where you hid your cigarettes  
                    E/B
No, I’ll never forget
                  B
I just want to be near you

[Verse 3]
---------------------
E         F#add11         B/D#
 Still, I pray  to what I cannot see
Aadd9             G#m        F#add11
     In the sprinkler, I mark
             E                   B
The evidence known from the start
E/B            B          F#/A#
   From the bed near your death
              G#m/D#                 F#add11/C#
And all the machines that made a mess
                     E/B
Far away, the falcon flew
                 B
Now I want to be near you

[Verse 4]
---------------------
E         F#add11       B/D#
 What’s left  is only bittersweet
Aadd9            G#m     F#add11
     For the rest  of my life  
              E             B
Admitting the best is behind me
E/B          B               F#/A#
   Now I’m drunk and afraid
            G#m/D#             F#add11/C#
Wishing the world would go away
                              E/B
What’s the point of singing songs
                        B
If they’ll never even hear you?
