Chords for Mary Chapin Carpenter - Songs From Home Episode 10: The Things That We Are Made Of

Hi everyone, welcome back to Songs from Home.
I'm here with Angus.
_ White Kitty's taking a nap. _ _ _
But we're glad to be back to play another song for you.
Hope you all are doing well.
Hope you're staying mighty.
_ _ He's strong.
And today I'm going to play a song that was the title of a song from an album I made
a few years ago.
It's called The Things That We Are Made Of.
Let's get down to it.
_ _ _ _ I _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ remember _ driving down the rugged [F#m] roads late at [A] night _
[E] Far away in the [B] summer moon _
[E] bright as any pair of headlights _ _
I felt the [A] air on my face and the night [C#m] pressed [E] inside my [C#m] palm
A [E] moment captured [B] in a place where this [E] memory [A] stays strong
[E] _ Oh my [A] darling, oh my love Oh my [E]
darling, oh my love
Oh my [B]
darling, oh my love The things [A] that we are made of
_ _ [E] I remember feeling _ _ I'm [C#m] alive and in no need of [A] saviors
[E] If the past [B] is another country _ [A] I'll add the [E] border with my paper
Where is your [A] heart if not inside?
_ Where is [C#m] home for you, honey?
[E] Where is [B] love if not beside you?
[A] I have no answers, they let me [E] cross
Oh my [A] darling, oh my love Oh [E] my darling, oh my love
Oh my [B] darling, oh my _ _ love The [A] things that we are made _ _ [E] of
_ [A] Silence of my shadow _ when a truth [C#m]
is calling _ _ _ [B] Loneliness that knows me
By the [E] cadence of my walking The _ scar [A] upon my elbow
_ The _ [C#m] sound of my own [E] breathing [C#m] _ _ By [B] reflection in a window
And the [E] way [A] I'm always leaving
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] remember _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
wishing for _ _ some other [A] life than this one I've claimed
_ [E] How [B] often have I been convinced?
_ [E] How eagerly do you make that change?
_ Then all [A] at once I see your face And the [C#m] summer night on the open door
[A] And when [B] I'm out in the dark maze _ And I [A] know that these are [E] yours
_ Oh my darling, [A]
oh my love _ Oh [E] my darling, oh my _ love
_ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ _ _ Oh my [B]
darling, oh my love The _ [A] things that we are made [E] of
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ That's [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A#] _ [D#] _ _ _ _ [A#] it from us.
See you soon.
Stay mighty. _ _ _
