Chords with lyrics

Intro:
FF Bb majorBb

Verse:

     FF          Bb majorBb
I was unpacking my suitcase, ?Pulling out dirty clothes

   FF         Bb majorBb
?When evocative aromas hit my nose

FF             Bb?
One shirt smelled of your smoky loft

FF             Bb?
Another strongly of spilt vodka

    G minorGm            Bb?
And it occurred to me, how much I brought home?

  G minorGm       Bb?
And knowingly you had loaded me up

FF          Bb majorBb
?With the stuff to survive

    FF            Bb?		?
Through lean times so starved I could just wither and die?

Chorus:

     FF       C?        Bb majorBb
But I was saving little chunks, ?of your sweet sweet goodness

FF    C majorC        Bb majorBb
?And squirrelin them away

FF    C majorC        Bb majorBb
?I was squirrelin them away

    FF       C?        Bb majorBb
I was saving healthy chunks, of your sweet sweet goodness

FF    C majorC     G minorGm
And squirrelin them away

C majorC         DmDm   Bb majorBb
For the long lean winter

Verse:

G minorGm   C majorC    DmDm    Bb?
All of y’all, so lush and generous

G minorGm     C majorC         DmDm    Bb majorBb
?It can get lean and lonely where I hail from

  G minorGm      C majorC          DmDm          Bb majorBb
But each luscious one of you, ?gave me bounteous charms to chew?


Chorus:

      FF          C majorC           Bb majorBb
?And I was stuffing, stretching, smiley-cheeked ?for the extent of my stay

           FF   C majorC      Bb majorBb
you could say that I was, ?squirrelin it away

FF   C majorC      Bb majorBb
I was just squirrelin it away
