The Spinster's Almanac by Christine Fellows (
Chords by Farlen
Bm A D G
Bm 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
Bm 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 Bm
I learned to drive when I was 65 years old
G A D
And I sit poker-straight behind the wheel
Bm A D G
Mother died of influenza when we kids were small
Bm A D G A
Father never smiled again and seemed to shrink with every passing year
Bm A D G
Everybody sigh and put your hands on your hips
Bm A D
But when I get those old songs in my head
G A
I can’t keep my fingers off the keys
Bm A D G
Bm 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 Bm 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 Bm
I read them poetry, they like the Yeats the best
G A D
And frankly, so do I
Bm A D G
Who wouldn’t like to wake up on the Isle of Innisfree
Bm A D G A
To muck about that bee-loud glade like he?
Bm A D G
Everybody sigh and put your hands on your hips
Bm A D G A
What's good enough for chickens is plenty good enough for you and me
Bm A D G
Bm 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
Bm G A D
I keep it in a matchbox in the pocket of my coat
