Sufjan Stevens - Lonely Man of Winter: chords

        G                    Dm
In the world that you would make up
     F                     C
With unicorns and buffalo backs
    G                  Dm
I know that you would wake up
          F                        C
With the sunny side touching your back

Chorus:
           G      Dm
Is it the lonely man of Christmas?
 F                          C
Coming up with theories on him
           G      Dm
Is it the lonely man of Christmas?
      F                    C
He's riding in the devil's abyss

    Em                Dm
Oh, I would rate the future
   F                       Am
If I could put a finger on it
    Em         Dm
But I have no idea
     F                         Am
If what I want is better than this

Chorus:
           Em     Dm
Is it the lonely man of winter?
F                         Am
I could put my finger on that
           Em      Dm
Is it the lonely drive to Denver?
     F                          C
The loneliness of Hoppington's hat

Is it the time we spent in silence?
The silence of a winter he had
Is it the lonely man of winter?
I could put my finger on that

And even if it's Christmas
Could we just pretend for a bit
That everything we went through
Was someone else's carpenter kiss
