Sufjan Stevens - Casimir pulaski day

^DGoldenrod and the ^C4h stone, the ^Amthings I brought you ^G when I found o^Dut you had cancer of the bone. ^{C Am G}

^DYour father cried^C on the telephone, and he ^Amdrove his car in^Gto the navy yard, just to prove tha^Dt he was sorr^Cy.^{Am G}

In the ^Dmorning, through the ^Cwindow shade, when the l^Amight pressed up against y^Gour shoulderblade, I could see^D what you were rea^Cdi^Amng.^G

All the ^Dglory that the ^CLord has made, and the ^Amcomplications you could d^Go without, when I kissed yo^Du on the mouth.^{C Am G}

^DTuesday night at the ^CBible study, we ^Amlift our hands and p^Gray over your body, but nothing eve^Dr happens. ^{C Am G}

^DI remember at ^CMichael's house, in the l^Amiving room when you k^Gissed my neck, and I almost ^Dtouched your blou^Cse^Am. ^G

In the ^Dmorning at the ^Ctop of the stairs, when your ^Amfather found out what we d^Gid that night, and you tol^Dd me you were s^Cca^Amred^G.

All the ^Dglory when you ^Cran outside, with your ^Amshirt tucked in and your ^Gshoes untied, and you told m^De not to follow ^Cyo^Amu. ^G

^DSunday night when I ^Ccleaned the house, I ^Amfind the card where you w^Grote it out, with the pic^Dtures of your moth^Cer^Am. ^G

^DOn the floor at the ^Cgreat divide, With my ^Amshirt tucked in and my s^Ghoes untied, I am crying in^D the bathroom. ^{C Am G}

In the ^Dmorning when you ^Cfinally go, and the ^Amnurse runs in with her ^Ghead hung low, and the cardinal hit^Ds the windo^Cw.^{Am G}

In the ^Dmorning in the ^Cwinter shade, on the^Am first of March on the h^Goliday, I thought I^D saw you breat^Chi^Amng.^G

All the ^Dglory that the ^CLord has made, and the^Am complications when I se^Ge His face, in the morni^Dng in the window^C. ^{Am G}

All the ^Dglory when he ^Ctook our place, but he ^Amtook my shoulders and he sh^Gook my face, and he takes, and^D he takes, and h^Ce ^Amtak^Ges.
