These are just the chords Sufjan plays throughout the song. He puts a capo on the 9th
(yes, I've seen him doing this live), so the chords are relative to the capo
e|--x---x----0---0-------------------------------------------|
B|--3---3----1---1-------------------------------------------|
G|--0---2----2---0-------------------------------------------|
D|--0---0----2---2-------------------------------------------|
A|--2--(0)---0---3-------------------------------------------|
E|--3---x----------------------------------------------------|
If you don't have a capo or you hate that thing, you can play these chords:
E, B5, F#m, A
