The Byrds Antique Sandy written by Roger McGuinn
[A]Antique S[C#m]andy [A]lived in the w[A7]oods
And [D]she'd go to the [D/C#]stream when the [Bm]weather was [E]good
[A]She'd take down the w[C#m]ashin for her [A]old man to w[A7]ear
And s[D]he tried not to [D/C#]get [Bm]eaten by the b[E]ear
[A]She'd fly to the [C#m]market in her w[A]orn out old [A7]balloon
[D]That she traded with the [D/C#]flyer for an [Bm]antique silver s[E]poon
And when [A]she got [C#m]home she'd cook u[A]pon the wooden [A7]stove
And she'd [D]go to sleep and [D/C#]listen to the [Bm]whispers of the [E]grove
At n[D]ight she dreamed of places where she [A]lived when she was young
[F#m]Where the corn strip stretched for miles like a [A]giant serpent's t[A7]ongue
[D]Electric lights and phone bells and ev[A]ery light insane (?)
Like a [F#m]hundred thousand hungry miles [A]meeting at her[E] brain
SOLO
[A]I greet her in the[C#m] morning when she w[A]akes up in my a[A7]rms
And I tell [D]her that I [D/C#]love her and I'll [Bm]keep her free from[E] harm
I [A]hold her close she [C#m]matters she is [A]all the world to [A7]me
Cause [D]she's my Antique [D/C#]Sandy and [Bm]she's in love with [E]me
