^CIt was nine feet high and six feet wide, ^Fsoft as a downy ch^Cick. It was ^Cmade from the feathers of forty-lev’n geese, took a ^D7whole bolt of cloth for the t^Gick. It’d^C hold eight kids and four hound dogs, little^F piggy we stole from the s^Ched. Didn’t ^Cget much sleep but we ^Fhad a lot of fun on G^Grandma's Feather ^CBed.

^CAfter supper we’d ^Fsit around the fire, the ^Cold folks spit and ^Gchew. ^CPa would talk about the ^Ffarm and the war and ^CGranny’d sing a ^Gballad or ^Ctwo. ^CI’d sit and listen and ^Fwatch the fire till the ^Ccobwebs filled my ^Ghead.
