I once knew a poet, who lived before his time
G G/F# C G C C/B D
He and his dog Spooner, who listened while he rhymed
Em Bm C C/B F F/E D
Words to make ya happy, words to make you cry
G G/F# C G C D G C G
Then one day the poet suddenly did die
But he left behind a closet, filled with verse and rhyme
C C/B D
And everybody knows the lines
C C/B D
From his book that costs $4.99
C C/B D
And I wonder if he knows he's doin
C G
Quite this fine
Cause his books are all best sellers, his poems were turned to songs
