The Predatory Wasp Of The Palisades Is Out To Get Us! Tab por Sufjan Stevens

C                     Am
Thinking outrageously I write in cursive
  F                       Dm                     
I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor
C                       Am
Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers
  F                         Dm
I see my own breath on the face of the door

C       Am
Oh I am not quite sleeping
F       Dm
Oh I am fast in bed
C                        Am
There on the wall in the bedroom creeping
F                     Dm
I see a wasp with her wings outstretched

C                   Am
North of Savanna we swim in the palisades
F                     Dm
I come out wearing my brother's red hat
C                        Am
There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times
F                   Dm
He runs washing his face in his hands

C        Am
Oh how I meant to tease him
F        Dm
Oh how I meant no harm
C                         Am
Touching his back with my hand I kiss him
F                     Dm
I see the wasp on the length of my arm

[Instrumental Interlude]

C        Am      F        Dm            C
Oh great sights upon this state! Hallelujah!
C       Am          F       Dm           C 
Wonders bright, and rivers, lake. Hallelujah!
C        Am        F           Dm         C
Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake. Hallelujah!
(We were in love we were in love, palisades palisades, I can wait I can wait)
C    Am         F        Dm            C
trusting things beyond mistake. Hallelujah!
(We were in love we were in love, palisades palisades, I can wait I can wait)

C                Am
We were in love. We were in love.
F
Palisades! Palisades!
Dm
I can wait. I can wait.

C       Am      F         Dm           C
Lamb of God, we sound the horn. Hallelujah!
(We were in love we were in love, palisades palisades, I can wait I can wait)
C  Am      F        Dm           C
To us your ghost is born. Hallelujah!
(We were in love we were in love, palisades palisades, I can wait I can wait)

C       Am                         F
I can't explain the state that I'm in
                Dm                    C
The state of my heart, he was my best friend
         Am                  F
Into the car, from the back seat
       Dm                C
Oh admiration in falling asleep
          Am                F
All of my powers, day after day
      Dm                         C
I can tell you, we swaggered and swayed
            Am                  F
Deep in the tower, the prairies below
       Dm                        C
I can tell you, the telling gets old
         Am                 F
Terrible sting and terrible storm
      Dm                       C
I can tell you the day we were born
             Am           F
My friend is gone, he ran away
      Dm                        C
I can tell you, I love him each day
               Am                    F
Though we have sparred, wrestled and raged
      Dm                       C
I can tell you I love him each day
         Am              F
Terrible sting, terrible storm
      Dm         ...C
I can tell you...
