Unpacking My Suitcase Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I w[G]as unpackin[D]g my suitcase
[G]Pulling out dirty clothes
[D]When evocative aromas [G]hit my [A]nose
[D]One shirt smelled of your smoky lof[G]t[F#]
[D]Another strongly of spi[G]lt vodka
And [Em]it occurred to me,
[G]how much I brought home

[Verse 2]
[Em]And knowingly [G]your head loaded me up
[D]With the stuff to surviv[G]e
Through [D]lean times
So starved I [G]could just wither and die

[Verse 3]
But I was [D]saving little [A]chunks
Of your sweet [G]sweet goodness
[A]And [D]squirrelin them awa[G]y
[D]I w[A]as s[Em]quirrelin them away
[D]I was saving healthy [A]chunks
Of [G]your sweet sweet goodness
[A]And [D]squ[A]irrelin them away[D][Em][A]
For the [Bm]long lean [G]winter

[Verse 4]
[Em]All of y[A]'all, so l[Bm]ush and genero[G]us[F#]
[Em]It can get l[A]ean and lonely
where [Bm]I hail fro[G]m
[Em]But each luscious one [A]of you
[Bm]Gave me bounteous charms [G]to chew

[Verse 5]
And I was stuff[D]ing, stretching,
smi[A]ley- cheeked
For the ex[G]tent of my stay
You could [D]say that I was
[A]Squirrelin it awa[G]y[Em]
[D]I w[A]as j[G]ust squirrelin it away
