Basket (ver 2) Chords
These aren't the actual chords played by Dan Mangan, but if you would like easy chords
without a capo, only a half step higher,
than these chords should work perfectly for you. They sounds great to play, just
unfortunately not along with the song. Good Luck!

Fall apart

Before it ends

Well we should try to start
C D G C
So I'll go but I'm telling you I don't wanna go

Could be stuck here and happy

And I've got the sides and all the corners
Am
But there's a space
G
Yeah there's a space
Am G
Lost some pieces I can't replace
C D G C
So I'll be but I'm telling you I don't wanna be

Just a wasted puzzle piece
G
We are old

And you know dogs they need ample time outside

My bones are worn, my hip won't hold
G C
I used to be so young, how did I get so old?
C D
Won't you take my cane and hold my hand
G C
You're holding onto all I have
C D
Just a basket full of memories
G C
And I am losing more each day it seems
C D
But if I can make it to the street
G C
I'll steal a car or a bike whatever there is to steal
C D
And it might get cold I just don't care
G C
I'm going 'til I'm getting there
C D
I'll ride my steed all through this town
G C
'Til I have looked and I have found
C D
Your peaceful memory
C D
Won't you return to me?
C D
Won't you return to me?
