Whats the matter here?

You'll never repair
Em                      C
The lady's cursed with insight

You?ll never fix her

with a cold stare

She's all broken inside

G
She made a good go
D/F#
like a weeping willow
Em                      C
Her limbs clung to the ground
G
She closed the window
D/F#
and made a pillow
Em                 C
And lay her head down

Am                        Bm     
And as her babies slept she took 
              C
a long deep breath

G                       D       
Now they're zipping her up in a 
Cmaj7
bag
G                       D       
Can you hear her blacks crackle 
Cmaj7
and drag?
