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