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