Capo on 2


G
I am a suitcase.
C           D                    G
I am locked tight with all these things

G
I could not replace
C            D       
If I were lost, and I
G
I roll around airports.
C            D             
I talk with seats until
     G 
It’s time to leave the concourse;
C             D    G    G   G
You, hanging on to me.


G                  C           D  
Remember when I -- fell down the stairs
              G                 G
When you were rushing down that long flight
C           D  
Of concrete squares?
G
You brushed my dirt off
C               D
And checked to see if you had
G                 G                
Hurt me more than you thought
   C       D            G       G      G
But ho--ow hurt could I be?


               D
And I’ll carry on
               C                G
‘Cause I don’t know how else to be.
        C             G 
I will stay here with you ‘til
       C                D       D
You’ve had your fill of me.
D
When you’re gone,
           C                 G
I know you won’t be gone too long.
     C                 G 
I am yours and you are mine
            C              D        D          D
Because you know that I am strong.

G
I keep your secrets.
C           D                G 
The one who knows about your life
                   C           D 
And all you regret when you’re alone.
G
Your kids don’t like me.
C           D  
They see me on your bed and
G
They try to hide me.
C              D       G      G       G
They think you love me best.


G              D 
But I’ll carry on,
               C                G
‘Cause I don’t know how else to be.
        C             G
I will stay here with you ‘til
       C                D     D      D
You’ve had your fill of me.

            D
When you’re gone,
           C                 G  
I know you won’t be gone too long.
     C                G
I am yours and you are mine
            C              D        D    D
Because you know that I am strong.
            D
I’ll carry on,
               C                G
‘Cause I don’t know how else to be.
       C              G  
I will stay here with you ‘til

       C                D     D     D
You’ve had your fill of me.


            D 
When you’re gone,
           C                 G
I know you won’t be gone too long.
     C                 G 
I am yours and you are mine
C                C         C  C
Because you know that
           D
I’ll carry on,
D             C                 G 
Cause I don’t know what else to do.
       C               G
I will be here for you now
          C                 D     D     D
Because I know I’m home for you.


D                            
The day will come 
           C
and you’ll decide
           G           C                G  
You need a change, but until I’m on the shelf
        C             D      D      D
We will be one in the same.
           G
One in the same.
