Unraveling chords by Liz Longley

Chords with lyrics

Capo: 2nd


G+G          Cadd9Cadd9
Boxes and baskets of all her old things
E minor 7Em7       Cadd9Cadd9
Porcelain dolls, portrait paintings
G+G         Cadd9Cadd9      E minor 7Em7  Cadd9Cadd9
She swore they'd be worth something

G+G               Cadd9Cadd9
They're just gathering dust in my attic somewhere
E minor 7Em7                Cadd9Cadd9
And she's lost in a room where she sits and she stares
G+G       C majorC      E minorEm   C majorC
Her mind as blank as the walls
G+G       C majorC       E minorEm  C majorC
Her memory as vacant as the halls

Chorus:
G+G      C majorC       E minorEm     C majorC
I'm the only daughter of her oldest son
G+G      C majorC       E minorEm      C majorC
I knew her well before her spirit was gone
     G+G      C majorC       E minorEm      C majorC
And her life is a thread woven into every part of me
    G+G   C majorC      E minorEm    C majorC
She is unraveling, she is unraveling

G+G            Cadd9Cadd9
She looks in my eyes and asks me my name
E minor 7Em7         Cadd9Cadd9
Every five minutes I tell her the same
G+G          Cadd9Cadd9    E minor 7Em7  Cadd9Cadd9
She smiles but it's cold and dead
     G+G       Cadd9Cadd9    E minor 7Em7  Cadd9Cadd9
And I'm screaming out loud in my head

Chorus repeats

G+G          Cadd9Cadd9
I tried to pull her back
E minorEm        C majorC       G+G
Stories and photographs of her children who love her
C majorC
Sisters and brothers
E minorEm           C majorC           D MajorD
She can't remember but how could a heart forget?

Chorus repeats (G+G Cadd9Cadd9 E minorEm C majorC)

     G+G            Cadd9Cadd9
I've been tearing through boxes on nights I can't sleep
E minorEm            C majorC         G+G
