Casimir Pulaski Day Chords & Tabs
Casimir Pulaski Day Chords
The second tab for this song is correct for one of the guitar parts, but here's a
version with the lyrics. The song sounds OK with just the chords.
I think there are two guitars and maybe a harp, so this is by definition incomplete.

Goldenrod and the 4H stone,
Am
the things I brought you,
G D C Am G
when I found out you had cancer of the bone

Your father cried on the telephone,

and he drove his car into the navy yard,

just to prove that he was sorry
D C
In the morning, through the window shade,
Am G
when the light pressed up against your shoulder blade,
D C Am G
I could see what you were reading.
