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