Verse 1:
G                 C                   G
Now that you know who has entered the pen
            C             G
I may never see you ever again
    D                   G
But I’ll still have the memory
         D                    G
Striding cocksure through the mist
              C        D       D7     G
Birmos in the cowshed; silkies on the wrist.

Verse 2:
G              C                  G
I like my rice pudding creamy and thick
                    C                  G
But cheap nostalgia tends to get on me wick
    D                 G
Yet bless these odd exceptions
  D              G
I find hard to resist
              C        D       D7     G
Birmos in the cowshed; silkies on the wrist.

[Break]
Bm                                      C           G
Things ingrained invade all thoughts of fixing on today
Bm                           C              G
Out goes flu jab two-fifteen in comes Vale away
           Bm                          C                G
Beyond the next bend who knows what as comfort looks to flee
Bm                             C   C   D   D   D   D
Pictures in the distance still soothe.

Verse 3:
G                     C                    G
Hook wrapped round my neck I’m leaving the pen
                 C             G
Seems I’ll never see you ever again
D                 G
Drifting with the morphine
D                G
Keeping with the tryst
              C        D       D7     G
Birmos in the cowshed; silkies on the wrist.

[Coda]
                C
Phantoms in the cowshed
G    D          D    D7 G
Silk scarf      on   my wrist.
