Chords for Lucy Kaplansky - Blue Chalk. Shrewsbury Folk Festival 2010

_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] So I wonder how she's doing, [C] hated when the rumors [Gm] fly.
They give off such a strange intonation, [Bb] in your helplessness all night.
[F] She would never run from strangers, [C] she sang alone like a bell [Gm]-willed toad.
Way above all the clang and the clatter, [Bb] out of fear the demon saw.
[F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] Maybe none of this is my [C] business, none of what I hear is [Gm] true.
I am far from the mint condition, [Bb] _ circulation's hard on [F] you.
Hold tight, hang [Am] tough, love's not [Gm] enough to keep you off that stuff.
[Bb] To [C] save [Bb] you, hold tight, [Am] hang tough, love's not [Gm] enough to keep you off that [Bb] stuff.
[C] To save [F] you now, _ [C] you're home _ _ [Gm] alone. _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] You could always find the hole in the [C] bottle, even with a blindfold [Gm] on.
Never kept his seat on the [Bb] wagon, rolling off like a rolling [F] stone.
Blue tongue between his [C] fingers, hustling a pool room [Gm] song.
He always kept a line for the [Bb] singer, pointing his cue right from [F] wrong.
Hold tight, hang [Am] tough, love's not [Gm] enough to keep you off that stuff.
[Bb] _ [C] To save you, [Bb] hold tight, hang [Am] tough, love's not enough [Gm] to keep you off that [Bb] stuff.
[C] To save [F] you now, _
_ [C] _ _ [Gm] you're _ _ _ [Bb] home alone. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] So I wonder how she's [C] doing.
I hate it when the rumors fly.
[Gm] They give off such a strange transmission.
[Bb] When you're helplessness on high.
[F] She would never run from [C] strangers.
She sang alone like a bell will [Gm] toll.
Way above all the clang and the [Bb] clutter, out of fear of the [F] demon's soul.
_ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Gm] I'm home _ [Bb] alone. _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
