Reach Out chords by Sufjan Stevens & Angelo De Augustine

[Intro]

C
 
[Verse 1]

C
I have a memory
      Dm7       
Of a time and place 
                 C
where history resigned
 
Now, my apology
        Dm7        
All the light came in to 
              C
fulminate my mind
 
[Verse 1]
C                       G7
Reach out, reach out to all the 

ones who came before you
F
  Ponder what is right
Dm7
You and I, in defiance
C            
Speak out, speak out, 
         G7
the conversation may afford you
F
  Wisdom of the wise
Dm7
You and I, in defiance
 
[Prechorus]

C F/C C Bb F/A
 
C
And I come from conscience
F/C
Where there is no conjugation
C                  
   I would rather be the 
Bb              F/A
flower than the ocean
C                     F/C
And I held myself as something 

of an innovation
C                        Bb 
   I would rather be devoured 
           F/A
than be broken
 
[Chorus]

C/G                    F/A
All my life I tried so hard 

to separate myself
     Em             
From all that is and was and 
       Bb     F
will be torn apart
C/G                  F/A
You were running unafraid
            
I know you, but 
                Em
I've changed my way
                   Bb      F
You know I take it all to heart
 
[Bridge]

F            Em     
  Home is where you 
              G
called my name
F            Em     
  I've gone as far as 
            G
the eye can blame
F            Em    
  You said love 
                  G
may have lost its way
 
[Chorus]

C/G                    F/A
Now my life has spent erased and 

what I gave
            Em  
I gave for you and 
                   Bb        F
for myself and for the holy name
C/G                  F/A
You were running unashamed
                             Em
And yours is mine and all remains
                   Bb      F
As nothing ever stays the same
 
[Chorus 3]

C                       Bb
Reach out, reach out to all the ones 

who came before you
G                       F
Reach out, reach out to all the 

ones who came before you
C                       Bb
Reach out, reach out and all 

at once the pain restores you
G                       F
Reach out, reach out and all at once 

the pain restores you

Bb              F/A           C/G
All at once the pain restores you
 
[Outro]

C
 
C
I have a memory
      Dm7       
Of a time and place 
                 C
where history resigned
C
Now, in my reverie
          Dm7      
For the guiding light that 
              C
opened up my mind
