Fairport Convention - Cell song

There's a ^Ctiny little window and the ^Fsun comes shining through ^CDancing with the dust that's in my ^Fcell ^Dm There's a ^Csparrow sitting on the sill and he ^Fstays for a minute or two But he's ^Cfrightened by the ^Fringing of the bell ^G

There's a ^Cbed that I must lie on when at ^Fnight I take my rest And a ^Cchair for me to sit on through the ^Fday ^G The ^Cmen who wait beside me ^Falways know what's best For a ^Cman who doesn't ^Fhave too much to ^Gsay

Throw a ^Claugh into the corner, blow a ^Ftear against the wall^{G C}Learn a game to play, improve the ^Fmind Con^Cfess your sins, you sinner, and think ^Fhow the seconds fall ^CLeave all earthly ^Fcares and woes behind^G

And ^Cwhen my short affair with life is ^Fended and I'm ^Dmgone Will you ^Ctell the world the story of John ^FLee? ^CAll you see is nothing and yet ^Feverything lives on ^CI was born to ^Fpay the hangman's ^Gfee
