The Spinster's Almanac by Christine Fellows (
Chords by Farlen
Dm C F A#
Dm C F A# C
A# C F
You're never far away from me
D# A# C F F/D#
I've had this lock of your hair now for a half a century or more
Dm A# C F
I keep it in a matchbox in the pocket of my coat
A# C F D#
Saturdays I go to town just to make them laugh
A# C F F/D# Dm
I learned to drive when I was 65 years old
A# C F
And I sit poker-straight behind the wheel
Dm C F A#
Mother died of influenza when we kids were small
Dm C F A# C
Father never smiled again and seemed to shrink with every passing year
Dm C F A#
Everybody sigh and put your hands on your hips
Dm C F
But when I get those old songs in my head
A# C
I can’t keep my fingers off the keys
Dm C F A#
Dm C F A# C
A# C F D#
Through my research I have found all it takes to keep the chickens
A# C F F/D# Dm A# C F
Laying eggs is opera or Gershwin played at low volumes on dad's old radio
A# C F D#
One concession for the hens destined for slaughter:
A# C F F/D# Dm
I read them poetry, they like the Yeats the best
A# C F
And frankly, so do I
Dm C F A#
Who wouldn’t like to wake up on the Isle of Innisfree
Dm C F A# C
To muck about that bee-loud glade like he?
Dm C F A#
Everybody sigh and put your hands on your hips
Dm C F A# C
What's good enough for chickens is plenty good enough for you and me
Dm C F A#
Dm C F A# C
A# C F
You're never far away from me
D# A# C F F/D#
I've had this lock of your hair now for a half a century or more
Dm A# C F
I keep it in a matchbox in the pocket of my coat
