Stories - For Matt Ukulele chords by Lilli Furfaro

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

* = strum once
Intro:
C

Chorus 1:
C
i breathe stories

i breathe them in and out
    F               G*
there’s nothing like the witness of a world that’s being born
 C
i breathe stories

my lungs are filled with pirate ships
  F*                G*
and towers built, and towers falling down

Verse 1:
    F
i speak rivers into motion
    C
i raise mountains with abandon
    G
i write cities sprawling over land
  Am
and people to complete them
    F             C
i tell stories of my family in a world that i have written
    G*
and my family breathes my stories
                     C
my love is etched in continents and seas

Chorus 2:
C
we are stories

beginnings, middles, ends
  F                G*
our power lies in living lives that touch a life or two
C
we are stories
                  F*
our families have grown to hold the lives

that touch the lives
        G*        Gsus4 G*
that touch the lives that we do

Verse 2:
    F
we are poetry in motion
    C
and our words give life to action
    G
in this world we’ve built on games of chance
  Am
and hours of introspection
    F
let our stories turn to tidal waves
   C
that sweep our families home again
  G*
and maps are etched in memories

and melodies
            C
and who we want to be

Chorus 3:
C
i breathe stories

i breathe them in and out
  F*                G*
and stories stitched together are how families are born
C
we are stories
                    F*
our lives are built on weaving all our stories
              Gsus4  G*
into worlds we call our own

Verse 3:
    F
we are power, we’re devotion
     C
love each other with abandon
    G
we are rivers, mountains, cities
    Am
and the tapestry that holds them
  F
my heart is in the brushstrokes
    C
of the world that i have written
    G*
and my family breathes my stories

my love is etched in continents and seas

Outro:
C
