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.
