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
