The Red Thread by Lucy Kaplansky







         The Red Thread 









Capo: 2nd fret

 
INTRO: G  C  G  C
 
      G                        C
I was only a girl, when I went out on my own
    G                       C
You wrapped me up warm, and just let me go
      Em                          D             G
Now I live at the far end of this long distance line
        C                                D
And I'm just another one, who's gone and left you behind
 
 
              G                              C
Wish we could look at your pictures, all the places you've been
    G                                 C
You don't think you will, but you can see them again
               Em                             D                   C
'Cause you can see them through me, the brown eyes I got from you
                                            D
Oh, but now I wish I could give 'em back to you
 
 
CHORUS:
     Em                   D
This much I can say, this much I can do
          C                           A7          A
When your heart is empty, I'll try to fill it for you
               C                   D         G             C  G  C
'Cause I'm the girl who learned to love from watching you
 
 
  G                                 C
I wish that I could tell you, it'll all be alright
        G                                 C
But you never did believe it, through the trials of your life
    Em                      D          G
And you and I both know, it just isn't true
     C                          D
When so much you love, has been taken from you
 
 
        G                              C
And I remember when you told me, if we run out of time
    G                       C
How happy you were, just to know she'll be mine
       Em                          D             G
When I wrap her up warm, you'll be right next to me
                    C                                           D
'Cause they say the red thread that ties me to you, ties her in me
 
 
CHORUS:
     Em                   D
This much I can say, this much I can do
          C                           A7          A
When your heart is empty, I'll try to fill it for you
               C                   D         G
'Cause I'm the girl who learned to love from watching you
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL: Am  C  Am  C  G  D  C   D
 
 
CHORUS:
     Em                   D
This much I can say, this much I can do
          C                           A7          A
When your heart is empty, I'll try to fill it for you
     Em                   D
This much I can say, this much I can do
          C                           A7          A
When your heart is empty, I'll try to fill it for you
               C                   D         G             C
'Cause I'm the girl who learned to love from watching you
         G     C
Watching you
         G     C   G   C
Watching you
