Subject: Antique Sandy    The Byrds  Chords/Words
AAntique SC#mandy Alived in the wA7oods
And Dshe'd go to the D/C#stream when the Bmweather was Egood
AShe'd take down the wC#mashin for her Aold man to wA7ear
And sDhe tried not to D/C#get   Bmeaten by the bEear
AShe'd fly to the C#mmarket in her wAorn out old A7balloon
DThat she traded with the D/C#flyer  for an Bmantique silver sEpoon
And when Ashe got C#mhome she'd cook uApon the wooden A7stove
And she'd Dgo to sleep and D/C#listen to the Bmwhispers of the Egrove
At nDight she dreamed of places where she Alived when she was young
F#mWhere the corn strip stretched for miles like a Agiant serpent's tA7ongue
DElectric lights and phone bells and evAery light insane (?)
Like a F#mhundred thousand hungry  miles Ameeting at her Ebrain
SOLO
AI greet her in the C#mmorning when she wAakes up in my aA7rms
And I tell Dher that I D/C#love her and I'll Bmkeep her free from Eharm
I Ahold her close she C#mmatters she is Aall the world to A7me
Cause Dshe's my Antique D/C#Sandy and Bmshe's in love with Eme

Subject: Antique Sandy The Byrds Chords/Words

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
