Friends They Are Jewels

C   F   Am   G

C                      F
  Dreamless sleep will fall
       Am             G
Like a deep, poisoned well
C                F
  On the steeple birds
         Am         G
And this red-light hotel

F                    C          F
  So lay your pistol down, Granny
                      Am      G
The company men never came to you
F                       C          F
  But don't unknit your brow, Granny
                             Am                G
The mice in the yard ate the potted plants you grew

C   F   Am   G

C                  F
  Pour your bitter tea
        Am              G
For our sweet, liquored host
C                  F
  Perfect polished stones
         Am               G
But this breeze beats you both

F                    C          F
  So lay your pistol down, Granny
                      Am      G
The duty of men never fell to you
F                      C          F
  When you unknit your brow, Granny
                                        Am            G
Your friends, they are jewels, twice as beautiful and few
