Shell Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]In the telling of your story
There is so much [Bm]that's [G]lost
There's an [C]ocean in between
The seen [G]and [D]un seen
That's as [C]deep as the [Em]loss [C]was[G][D]
To you so young
I just [G]see a shell
[C][G]

[Verse 2]
Can't really get the picture
[C]I've nothing to compar[G]e
[Bm]Can't say I un[C]derstand
Have no hand to [D]lend
[C]You had more [Em]than your fair [C]share[D]
For one so young
But you do [C]it all [G]so [Bm]well[G]

[Interlude 1]

[C][G][C][Dsus4][D][C][Em]
[G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
I fold things just like my [G]mother
[Em]Into [G]two then into three
I don't know why [C]I do
But then I think of [D]you
And what it [C]takes [Em]to be fr[C]ee[D]
From all you've learned
But you know it [G]all too well

[Verse 4]
[G]
In the telling of your story
You say there's so much more
Then you curl [C]away from me
To some deeper [D]sea
And [C]I'm here [Em]on the foreshore
[C]Til[D]l your return[C]
[D]I just see[G] a shell
