D
The farmhouse was overtaken,

   C
By vines and The Snake,

A
Hooked on fancy power,

    D
The acres seemed to ache.
[Verse 2]
D
Pursued by floating rebels,

       C
They'd take us if they could,

  A
I thought the spell of country living,

      C
Would do my spirits good.
[Chorus 1]
      D
Emily Dickinson,

D
Won't you,

G                 F
Lay your hand out low,

D
Staring out the window pane,

        G               F
There's so much more to know,

      D
Emily Dickinson,

          G                F
Up on the down in Victoria black,

D
Let's watch the white clouds run,

         G                 F*
With the cool grass on our backs.
[Verse 3]
    D
The dormouse was mistaken,

      C
There was no cord or veil,

    A
The attic and the cellar,

         D
Were but jaws of a bear,
[Verse 4]
    D
The hunter was the quarry,

    C
All tangled in the wood,

  A
I thought the spell of country living,

      C
Would do my spirits good.
[Chorus 1]

    Disembodied gentry,

    Gathered round my door,

    Your electrical habits,

    Aren't welcome here anymore.

      With a locket and glove,

    Keepsakes lest I forget,

A woman by the name of,

Trade your linen for a rose,

The wild ganja grows,

      D
Emily Dickinson,

D
Won't you,

Lay a hand down low,
