[Intro]
E B C#m A
[Verse]
E C#m
Thinking outrageously I write in cursive
A F#7
I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor
E C#m
Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers
A F#7
I see my own breath on the face of the door
E C#m
Oh I am not quite sleeping
A F#7
Oh I am fast in bed
E C#m
There on the wall in the bedroom creeping
A F#7
I see a wasp with her wings outstretched
[Interlude]
E B C#m A

[Verse]
E C#m
North of Savanna we swim in the palisades
A F#7
I come out wearing my brother's red hat
E C#m
There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times
A F#7
He runs washing his face in his hands
E C#m
Oh how I meant to tease him
A F#7
Oh how I meant no harm
E C#m
Touching his back with my hand I kiss him
A F#7
I see the wasp on the length of my arm
[Interlude]
TODO: I think it's different from the other progressions...
[Chorus]
E B C#m A
Oh great sights upon this state, Hallelujah
E B C#m A
Wonders bright and river's wake, Hallelujah
E B C#m A
Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake, Hallelujah
E B C#m A
Trusting things beyond mistake, Hallelujah
(We were in love, we were in love)
(Palisades palisades palisades)
(I can wait, I can wait)
I can't explain the state that I'm in
The state of my heart, he was my best friend
Into the car, from the back seat
Oh admiration in falling asleep
All of my powers, day after day
I can tell you, we swaggered and swayed
Deep in the tower, the prairies below
I can tell you, the telling gets old
Terrible sting and terrible storm
I can tell you the day we were born
My friend is gone, he ran away
I can tell you, I love him each day
Though we have sparred, wrestled and raged
I can tell you I love him each day
Terrible sting and terrible storm
I can tell you...
