Queen Of The Silver Dollar

Queen Of The Silver Dollar
recorded by Emmylou Harris
written by Shel Silverstein
 
G                             
She arrives in all her splendor 
      C                      
Every night at nine o'clock
        D7                              
And her chariot is the cross town bus 
                          G      
That stops right down the block
 
                              
Now the old piano minstrel 
          C                     
Plays her tune as she walks in
        D7                            
And the Queen of the Silver Dollar 
           G      
is home again
 

CHORUS
                       C      G        
She's the Queen of the Silver Dollar 
                   C      G        
She rules this smokey kingdom
                C    G            
Her scepter is a wine glass 
         A7               D7       
And this bar stool is her throne
 
        G       C     G            
Now the jesters flock around her 
             C       G       
Tryin to win her favours
              C        G      
To see which one will take 
    C            G      D7     G     
The Queen Of the Silver Dollar home
 


                                  
Now the royal dress is satin 
       C                          
It's shabby and it's torn
        D7                                  
The royal jewels are rhinestones 
                              G     
The shoes are scuffed and worn
 
         G                           
Of the many roads she's been down
        C                          
And the places that she's seen
      D7                      
Well they all look at her and say 
             G               
God save the Queen
 

REPEAT CHORUS
            
                      
The Queen of the Silver Dollar's 
          C                      
Is not as haughty as she seems
      D7                       
She was once an ordinary girl 
              G 
With ordinary dreams 
 
 
But there’s a man who found her 
       C                           
And he brought her to this world
    D7                              
He’s the one who made a Queen 
                    G      
Of a simple country girl 

 
REPEAT CHORUS to outro.
