Unpacking My Suitcase chords by Vic Chesnutt

Intro:
F Bb

Verse:

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

      F                 Bb
?When evocative aromas hit my nose

F                         Bb?
One shirt smelled of your smoky loft

F                          Bb?
Another strongly of spilt vodka

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

    Gm              Bb?
And knowingly you had loaded me up

F                   Bb
?With the stuff to survive

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


Chorus:

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

F       C               Bb
?And squirrelin them away

F       C               Bb
?I was squirrelin them away

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

F       C         Gm
And squirrelin them away

C                 Dm     Bb
For the long lean winter

Verse:

Gm      C       Dm        Bb?
All of y’all, so lush and generous

Gm          C                  Dm       Bb
?It can get lean and lonely where I hail from

    Gm            C                   Dm                    Bb
But each luscious one of you, ?gave me bounteous charms to chew?


Chorus:

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

                     F     C            Bb
you could say that I was, ?squirrelin it away

F     C            Bb
I was just squirrelin it away
