The Pillar Of Souls

by Sufjan Stevens & Angelo De Augustine
Capo 3
Standard Tuning

3/4 Time
Am Em Am Em

[Verse 1]
Am Em
I slept for five days
Am Em Dm
In stillness I laid full of demonic visions
Em Dm
My still life remains like the path of a pigeon
Em Am
That flew into flames from the rivals of Hell

[Verse 2]
Am Em Am
Raised from the dead to save my soul
Em Dm
J.P. Monroe tied up his ghost
Em Dm
Life was just like a camera show
Em C
Captured in song my life gives blood

[Chorus]
C Dm
It's all flesh in my mind
Em
I can't wait to inscribe
F C
All the names that I've read in the blood of your knife
Dm Am
Heaven and Hell await all who give of their life
F
I've been waiting this time
Am Em Am Em

[Verse 3]
Am Em
Now covered in chains
Am Em Dm
My skin is ablated with bleeding incision
Em Dm
And still, life remains, my cadaver imprisoned
Em Dm
As you shall retain me and raise me from hell

[Verse 4]
