[Intro 1]
[G][Am][C][D][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]She's weaving
him a pillow full of [C]dreams
[D]Soft winter wool and summer [G]fleas
The colors of the berries that
[Am]grow among the hills
[D]Strands of cloudy gray and
[C]deep blue [G]indigo
[Em]And [C]she sits beside the open
door in the [G]evening sun
Combs the [Em]carded wool [C]in her lash,
[Am]her long hair all undone[D]
[G]Talking to the one she loves as
she [Am]weaves the henspun yarn.
Like a [D]web around her there to
[C]keep her safe from [G]harm.
[Em]She dances in his heart like a f[G]eather
So [Em]fine the threads that [C]bind the
[D]souls [Am]together[D]
[G]She's weaving him a
pillow for his [C]head
Sometimes [D]the strongest love hangs by
[C]such a [G]slender [C]thread[G][D][C][G]
He always loved to sing those
country [C]songs
[D]About his mountain home
and love gone [G]wrong
That one about an old friend ridin'
[Am]with the highway signs
But his [D]favorites were the ones he
could [C]play between the [G]lines
He would [C]sit on her porch
in the [G]evening light
With his [Em]guitar in his [C]hands,
[Am]singing to the night[D]
[G]Weaving pictures in her mind,
[Am]with every single word
But the [D]songs he wrote for her
were the [C]only ones she [G]heard.
[Em]She had his drifter's
heart on a teth[G]er.
So [Em]fine the threads that [C]bound
these [D]souls [Am]together.[D]
[G]She'd love to hear him sing,
that's what she [C]said.
Sometimes [D]the strongest love hangs [Dsus4]by such a[C] slender thread.
[G]

[G]See

[Verse 2]
him lyin' there with
broken [C]bones
And a [D]child's smile on a man full [G]grown
[D]If [C]he'[G]d gone just another inch,
by now [Am]he would be dead.
At [D]times a life can hang by
[C]such a slender [G]thread.
He can [C]only thank his stars
for another [G]day
And [Em]then he has to [C]choose to
[Am]live another way[D]
[G]He can't ask her how,
this time [Am]she's already said
That [D]fine line that you walk is
[C]just a slender [G]thread
[Em]She knows his heart can
be as tough as [G]leather
So [Em]strong the threads
that [C]bind these souls
[D]together
But [G]still he counts the scars
inside his [C]head
Sometimes [D]the strongest love hangs
by [C]such a slender [G]thread
[C]She[G]'s weaving him a pillow for
his [C]head[G][D][C][G][C][D]
You
