This song's going to keep you going, I think.
[G] [N] We had a fantastic singer and banker, Sandy Deniger, who died 20 years ago.
[G] [N] Really was one of the absolute greatest singers.
[F#] Popular music, folk music, whatever you [G] call it.
As she wrote this song,
[N] my humble performance,
leave you to YouTube to hear Sandy's version of the thing.
My job will be done.
This is the BBC radio.
As if we care about them.
Fairport's recording of this song is best folk recording.
Not like that week, but like ever.
[G] [D#] Why am I telling you this?
I don't [N] know.
Sort of aggrandized look?
Yes, probably.
I think just the fact you're at this show means you're probably a bit of a nerd.
And, well, when you go home to your friends,
they say, well, who's going to look at your tape?
Well, it really comes to me, you know,
is that who?
As they always do, right, who?
You say, oh, didn't you know that his band had the greatest,
probably the best song ever?
Oh, wow, really?
So, I think this will improve your social standing with them.
It's not about me, it's about you.
Jimmy Carrey's also recorded this, this song by the Sisters.

[G] Mother birds are [C] weeping
[G] But how can they [C] know
Most [G] times they're gone
[C]
[Am] And for the winter [G] fire
I [Cm] will [Bm] still be dreaming
I [C]
haven't lost a [G] word in time
Who
[C] [D] knows where the [C] time gone?

[Em] [G] I know it won't be so
[C] Until [G] it's time to go
[C]
So [Am] come the storms of [Em] winter
