In China Or A Womans Heart chords

CAPO: 3rd Fret

CHORUS: -(# 1st 2 lines sung a Capella #)-
[G]Just a [C]little box all covered with [G]blossoms white as snow
[C]Chinese red and [G]made of brass that he [A7]gave her long a[D]go
Like the [G]red dirt Oklahoma hills and the [C]springtime flowering trees
That she [G]kept with all the love they shared in[D]side her memo[G]ries

She [D]got it from her captain when he [C]sailed around the [G]horn
[C]Bringing gifts from [G]China to their [D]Oklahoma home
There were [G]fancy silks and carved wood chests from the [C]places he had gone
She kept them [G]all until she died, but this [D]was her favourite [G]one

[CHORUS]
Just a [C]little box all covered with [G]blossoms white as snow
[C]Chinese red and [G]made of brass that he [A7]gave her long a[D]go
Like the [G]red dirt Oklahoma hills and the [C]springtime flowering trees
That she [G]kept with all the love they shared in[D]side her memo[G]ries [D] [G]

And she [D]kept it on her dresser filled with [C]gold and silver [G]rings
[C]Necklaces of [G]turquoise [D]beads and other things
It [G]filled her heart with the mystery and the [C]magic of the day
When he [G]gave it to her for her own, in his [D]quiet loving [G]way

Ten [D]years they spent together, he'd come [C]home and then he'd [G]leave
[C]One day while she [G]waited,[D] he disappeared at sea
[G]No one knew how she called his name to the [C]silent rocks and stones
Or how she'd [G]sit and hold that little box, so she [D]would not feel a[G]lone

[CHORUS]
Just a [C]little box all covered with [G]blossoms white as snow
[C]Chinese red and [G]made of brass that he [A7]gave her long a[D]go
Like the [G]red dirt Oklahoma hills and the [C]springtime flowering trees
That she [G]kept with all the love they shared in[D]side her memo[G]ries

INSTRUMENTAL: [G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [A] [D] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G]

No, she [D]never was a dancer or [C]wrote a fancy [G]line
The [C]treasures of her [G]life, were the[D] things she left behind
They [G]buried her without them, where the [C]prairie grasses grow
In [G]China or a woman's heart, there are [D]places no one [G]knows

[CHORUS]
Just a [C]little box all covered with [G]blossoms white as snow

Like the [G]red dirt Oklahoma hills and the [C]springtime flowering trees
That she [G]kept with all the love they shared in[D]side her memo[G]ries

They buried her without them where the [C]prairie grasses grow
