Should Have Known Better Tabulatur von Sufjan Stevens (für Baryton)

Em                         A
  I should have known better
                    G
To see what I could see
         C
My black shroud
                Bm
Holding down my feelings
                    Am
A pillar for my enemies

Em                              A
    I should have wrote a letter
                                 G
And grieve what I happen to grieve
         C
My black shroud
                 Bm
I never trust my feelings
                     Am
I waited for the remedy

(Am)

Am         C                  D
When I was three, three maybe four
(D)                 Em          Em-D-G
She left us at that video store
(G)   D           Am      Am-D-G
Be my rest, be my fantasy
(G)   D           Am
Be my rest, be my fantasy

(Am)

Em                       A
   I'm light as a feather
                         G
I'm bright as the Oregon breeze
         C
My black shroud
                 Bm
Frightened by my feelings
                  Am
I only wanna be a relief

Em                A
No, I'm not a go-getter
                         G
The demon had a spell on me
         C
My black shroud
              Bm
Captain of my feelings
                         Am
The only thing I wanna believe

Am         C                     D
When I was three, and free to explore
(D)                   Em              Em-D-G
I saw her face on the back of the door
(G)   D           Am      Am-D-G
Be my rest, be my fantasy
(G)   D           Am
Be my rest, be my fantasy

G                     C
  I should have known better
               D
Nothing can be changed
                      Em
The past is still the past
    D               C
The bridge to nowhere
(C)                        Am
I should have wrote a letter
                  D                      Em D G
Explaining what I feel, that empty feeling

G            C                    D
  Don't back down, concentrate on seeing
(D)                 Em       D                  C
The breakers in the bar, the neighbor's greeting
(C)                    Am
My brother had a daughter
                    D                  Em D G
The beauty that she brings, illumination

G            C                      D
  Don't back down, there is nothing left
(D)                 Em      D             C
The breakers in the bar, no reason to live
(C)                    Am
I'm a fool in the fetter
                D                            Em D G
Rose of Aaron's beard, where you can reach me

G            C                   D
  Don't back down: nothing can be changed
(D)        Em          D             C
Cantilever bridge, the drunken sailor
(C)                    Am
My brother had a daughter
                    D                  Em D
The beauty that she brings, illumination
G
illumination.
