 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
