[G]Vesuvi

[Verse 1]
us
I am [A]here[Bm]
You [F#m]are that all I ha[Em]ve
Fire [G]of fire
I'm insec[A]ure[Bm]
For it is [F#m]all
Been [C]made to [Em]plan
Though [F#m]I know[G]
I will [A]fail[Bm]
I cannot
[F#m]Be made to laugh[Em]
For [D]in [G]life
As [A]in [Bm]death
I'd rather be [F#m]burned
Than be [C]living in [G]debt[A]

[Verse 2]
[G]Vesuvius
Are you [A]a g[Bm]host
Or the symbols of [A]light
Or a [F#m]fantasy [Em]host?
In your [G]breast
I carry [A]the form[Bm]
The heart of the [F#m]Earth
And the [C]weapons [Em]of warmth
[A]Vesuvi[D]

[Verse 3]
[G]us
The [D]tragic [F#m]oath[Bm]
For you have destroyed
[F#m]With the elegant smoke[Em][G]
[D]Oracle, [G]I've fal[Bm]len at last
But they were [F#m]the feast
Of a [A]per[C]manent [G]blast[F#m]

[G]us[D]
Oh, be [Bm]kind
It hasn't [F#m]oc cur[D]red
No it [A]hasn't [Em]been said
[G][A][G][D]
Sufjan, follow the [Bm]path
[G]It lea[D]ds to an article of imminent[A]
[Em]death[G][A][G][D]
Sufjan, follow [A]your [Bm]heart
Follow [F#m]the flame
[D]Or fall on the[Em] floor
[A]Suf[Bm]jan, the pan[F#m]ic ins[D]ide[Bm]
The murder[A]ing ghost
That you [F#m]cannot ignore
[G]
