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