What did I say?
For the way to tune a banjo, somebody would have already thought of it.
[D] But, [Am] odds are, [G] occasionally, there's nothing more to do but be in tune.
Let me just apologize [Dm] to people who were born after, say, [G] 1950.
This old time music, very fine line between playing old time music and not being able to play at all.
But the reason we do it is because [F#] old time music is better than [A] it sounds.
[B] And a lot of times, [A] if you want to know how to tell if it's old time music
Period.

[D] Ten thousand miles of length and [A] breadth, four square [D] city stands.
Pit gyms and malls of Jasper [A] shine, not made by [D] human hands.
[G] One hundred [D] miles of gates are [G] wide, [D] empty entrance there.
With fifty miles of milk, a room on [A] each side, [D] the spare.
Gates swing wide on the other side, [G] beyond [D] the sunset sea.
Heavy rooms, spare, the enter there.
Room for you, room for me.
Gates open wide on the other side.
[G] A [D] pear's flower blooms on the right hand, on the left hand.
Fifty [A] miles of elbow.

I strive, pain, and somehow [A] to wear the pear's [D] flower.
