Start real slow, just keep repeating it, and it will make sense. The woodwinds go through the progression once, then Sufjan's guitar fades in: A e|----0-----------0-----------0-----------0-------| B|--3---3-------3---3-------3---3-------3---3-----| G|4-----------4-----------4-----------4-----------| D|----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-| A|0-------0---0-------0---0-------0---0-------0---| E|------------------------------------------------| G e|----0-----------0-----------0-----------0-------| B|--3---3-------3---3-------3---3-------3---3-----| G|4-----------4-----------4-----------4-----------| D|----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-| A|------------------------------------------------| E|3-------3---3-------3---3-------3---3-------3---| The 4s on the G string are sort of optional, I can't really tell if he plays them or not, and it's a hell of a lot easier if you don't. Another verse follows, same guitar part, except now he adds some hammering for flare: D Bmadd11 Gmaj7 e|------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|------3-----------3---------------3-----------3-----------3-----------0-| G|--2-------2---2-------2-------0-----------0-----------0-----------0-----| D|0---0---0---0---0---0-----------4-----------4---------------------------| A|------------------------2---2-------2---2--------------------------0h2--| E|------------------------------------------------3---3---3---3---3-------| Em9 e|------------------------| B|----------3-------------| G|------0-----------0---0-| D|------------------------| A|-------------------0h2--| E|0---0---0---0---0-------| North of Savannah we swim in the Palisades I come out wearing my brother's red hat There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times he was washing his face in his hands Oh how I meant to tease him Oh how I meant no harm Touching his back with my hand I kiss him I see the wasp on the length of my arm Then comes an instrumental verse with the trumpet and harmonized trumpet, same as verse guitar. Finally, the last section, in which he strums the chords in a dramatic fashion. The strum pattern starts on the "and" pickup of the preceding measure. For lack of a better way to notate this, "o"s mark the strums, with capital "O"s being accented strums. Aa1eAa2eAa3eAa1eAa2eAa3eAa ooO ooO oo and so on and so forth The chords (relative to capo) are D A Em G. The first part of the lyrics here are chanted by the female Illinoismakers: D A Em G Oh great sights u---pon this state, Hallelujiah Wonders bright and river's wake , Hallelujiah Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake , Hallelujiah Trusting things be--yond mistake , Hallelujiah On "Trail of Tears," Sufjan enters with: D A Em G We were in love, we were in love, Palisades, Palisades, I can wait, I can wait We were in love, we were in love, Palisades, Palisades, I can wait, I can wait Trumpet/vibraphone line enters, no guitar We were in love, we were in love, Palisades, Palisades, I can wait, I can wait Chanting resumes as "We were in love" continues, strumming resumes: D A Em G Lamb of God we sound the horn, Hallelujiah to us your ghost is born, Hallelujiah Now just woodwinds, no guitar: I can't explain the state that I'm in, the state of my heart, he was my best friend. Into the car, from the backseat, oh admiration, in falling asleep. All of my powers, day after day, I can tell you, we swaggered and swayed. Deep in the Tower, the prairies below, I can tell you, but telling gets old. Here, the chanting resumes from "Oh great sights . . ." Terrible sting, terrible storm, I can tell you, the day we were born. My friend is gone, he ran away, I can tell you, I love him each day. Though we have sparred, wrestled, and raged, I can tell you, I love him each day. Terrible sting, terrible storm I can tell you and fin. Corrections / Comments / Questions -> *
