Futile Devices chords by Sufjan Stevens

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
BbM7Bbm7
It's been a long, long time
      Bbm7/Eb    Eb MajorEb
Since I've memorized your face
BbM7Bbm7
It's been four hours now
      Bbm7/Eb        Eb MajorEb
Since I've wandered through your place
BbM7Bbm7
And when I sleep on your couch
Bbm7/Eb   Eb MajorEb
I feel very safe
BbM7Bbm7
And when you bring the blankets
 Bbm7/Eb    Eb MajorEb
I cover up my face

Chorus:
  BbM7Bbm7
I do
 AbAb   Eb MajorEb
Love you
  BbM7Bbm7
I do
AbAb   Eb MajorEb
Love you

Verse:
BbM7Bbm7
And when you play guitar
 Bbm7/Eb     Eb MajorEb
I listen to the strings buzz
BbM7Bbm7          Bbm7/Eb   Eb MajorEb
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
BbM7Bbm7
And when you crochet
    Bbm7/Eb    Eb MajorEb
I feel mesmerized and proud
BbM7Bbm7
And I would say I love you
  Bbm7/Eb    Eb MajorEb
But saying it out loud is hard

Outro:
BbM7Bbm7         Bbm7/Eb  Eb MajorEb
So I won't say it at all
BbM7Bbm7          Fm7Fm7 Eb MajorEb
And I won't stay very long

  BbM7Bbm7      Ab/F     Eb MajorEb
But you are life I needed all along
      BbM7Bbm7
I think of you as my brother
Ab/F          Eb MajorEb
Although that sounds dumb
   BbM7Bbm7        Ab/F  Eb MajorEb
