Berikut lirik dan chord lagu "Tapestry" dari Carole King.

E                   B7              E             B7
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue,
E                   B7                E                 B7
an everlasting vision of the everchanging view,
F#m7             B                 A             B
a wondrous woven magic in bits of blue and gold,
Amaj7                 G#m7        F#m              B7
a tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold.

Emaj7                B9              Emaj7             B9
Once amid the soft silver sadness in the sky
E                  B9                   E                B7
there came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by
F#m7               B                  A        B
he wore a torn and tattered cloth around his leathered hide
Amaj7                 G#m7        F#m         B7          F#m7                   B7
and a coat of many colors, yellow-green on either side.

G             D7sus            D7             Gmaj7                   D7
He moved with some uncertainty, as if he didn't know
G          D7sus             D7          Gmaj7             D7
just what he was there for, or where he ought to go
B             Gb7                Abm7                B
once he reached for something golden hanging from a tree
Emaj7                            Gb
and his hand came down - empty.

E             B7             E     B7
Soon within my tapestry along the rutted road
E             B7             E                       B7
he sat down on a river rock and turned into a toad,
F#m7                 B             A                    B
it seemed that he had fallen into someone's wicked spell,
Amaj7               G#m7                  F#m            B7
and I wept to see him suffer, though I didn't know him well.

F                  C7                  F              C7
As I watched in sorrow, there suddenly appeared
F                  C7                 F                   C7
a figure gray and ghostly beneath a flowing beard
Gm7                 C             Bb                           C
in times of deepest darkness, I've seen him dressed in black
Bbmaj7                Am7            Gm         C7
now my tapestry's unravelling; he's come to take me back,
Gm7        D9sus          Dm7/4
he's come to take me back.
