Sufjan Stevens - Futile Devices: chords

F#m7
It's been a long, long time
            B7sus4         B7   F#m
Since I've memorized your face
F#m7
It's been four hours now
            B7sus4                B7   F#m
Since I've wandered through your place
F#m7
And when I sleep on your couch
B7sus4       B7  F#m
I feel very safe
F#m7
And when you bring the blankets
  B7sus4       B7
I cover up my face

Chorus:
F#m F#m7
I    do
B7sus4 B7 F#m
Love  you
F#m7
I   do
B7sus4 B7 F#m
Love   you

F#m7
And when you play guitar
  B7sus4          B7         F#m
I listen to the strings buzz
F#m7                   B7sus4        B7   F#m
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
F#m7
And when you crochet
       B7sus4          B7    F#m
I feel mesmerized and proud

F#m7
And I would say I love you
    B7sus4         B7 F#m   A
But saying it out loud  is hard
     E/G#            F#m7
So I won't say it at all
 A    E/G#            F#m7
And I won't stay very long
     A      E/G#     F#m7
But you are life I needed all along
            A         E/G#
I think of you as my brother
 F#m7
Although that sounds dumb

     A         E/G#   F#m7
And words are futile devices
