Rough Draft please post corrections
The Byrds Antique Sandy written by Roger McGuinn
A C#m A A7
Antique Sandy lived in the woods
D D/C# Bm E
And she’d go to the stream when the weather was good
A C#m A A7
She’d take down the washin for her old man to wear
D D/C# Bm E
And she tried not to get eaten by the bear
A C#m A A7
She’d fly to the market in her worn out old balloon
D D/C# Bm E
That she traded with the flyer for an antique silver spoon
A C#m A A7
And when she got home she’d cook upon the wooden stove
D D/C# Bm E
And she’d go to sleep and listen to the whispers of the grove
D A
At night she dreamed of places where she lived when she was young
F#m A A7
Where the corn strip stretched for miles like a giant serpent’s tongue
D A
Electric lights and phone bells and every light insane (?)
F#m A E
Like a hundred thousand hungry miles meeting at her brain
SOLO
A C#m A A7
I greet her in the morning when she wakes up in my arms
D D/C# Bm E
And I tell her that I love her and I’ll keep her free from harm
A C#m A A7
I hold her close she matters she is all the world to me
D D/C# Bm E
Cause she’s my Antique Sandy and she’s in love with me
