The Only Thing by Sufjan Stevens
The Only Thing
capo 1st fret
G D Em D A7
G D Em D A7
The only thing that keeps me from driving this car
G D Em D A7
Half-light, jack knife into the canyon at night
G D Em D A7
Signs and wonders: Perseus aligned with the skull
G D Em D A7
Slain Medusa, Pegasus alight from us all
Bm F#m G A7
Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they’re found
Bm F#m G A7
In a veil of great surprises; I wonder did you love me at all?
G D Em D A7
The only thing that keeps me from cutting my arm
G D Em D A7
Cross hatch, warm bath, Holiday Inn after dark
G D Em D A7
Signs and wonders: water stain writing the wall
G D Em D A7
Daniel’s message: blood of the moon on us all
Bm F#m G A7
Do I care if I despise this? Nothing else matters, I know
Bm F#m G A7
In a veil of great disguises, how do I live with your ghost?
G D A7
Should I tear my eyes out now?
D Em D A7
Everything I see returns to you somehow
G D A7
Should I tear my heart out now?
D Em D A7 G
Everything I feel returns to you somehow
A7
I want to save you from your sorrow
Break
Bm F#m G D A7
Bm F#m Em A7
G D Em D A7
The only reason why I continue at all
G D Em D A7
Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb
G D Em D A7
Signs and wonders: sea lion caves in the dark
G D Em D A7
Blind faith, God’s grace, nothing else left to impart
Bm F#m G A7
Do I care if I survive this, bury the dead where they’re found
Bm F#m G A7
In a veil of great surprises, hold to my head till I drown
Bm F#m G A7
Should I tear my eyes out now, before I see too much?
Bm F#m G A7
Should I tear my arms out now, I wanna feel your touch
G D A7
Should I tear my eyes out now?
D Em D A7
Everything I see returns to you somehow
G D A7
Should I tear my heart out now?
D Em D A7 G
Everything I feel returns to you somehow
