Biography:
Sammy Walker (born in 1952 near Atlanta, Georgia) is an American singer-songwriter. Influenced by the folk and country sounds of Bob Dylan, Woodie Guthrie and Hank Williams, Walker emerged in the mid 1970s with two albums for the Folkways label and two albums for Warner Brothers. While appearing on Bob Fass's radio show in 1975, he caught the ear of Phil Ochs, who was impressed by the young songwriter and agreed to produce his first album with Folkways.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
As with the rest of the "Song For Patty" album, there has been a change to the original speed, meaning the
pitch is off unless you detune precisely. Just in case you try and play along but find it awkward.
Intro: D G x 4
D G
Tell me who'll be left to cry
D G
When the funeral passes by
D G D
The Statue of Liberty as she's crumblin'
G
Will we make her dyin' bed
D G
Place a wreath upon her head
D G D
And say it was bound to happen sooner or later
Chorus:
G A
The curtain's going down
D G
And the feel of an old ghost town
A
Will soon make the clock quit turning round
G A
Well the world ain't worth a dime
D G
When the Liberty Bell has ceased its chime
D A7 D
I think then we'll know it's closin' time
D G
How can a Bluebird sing
D G
In the middle of a spring
D G D
With a broken heart of interfered direction
D G
How can a dew drop fall
D G
On a mountain once so tall
D G D
That's been covered with a blanket of deception
Chorus:
G A
The curtain's going down
D G
And the feel of an old ghost town
A
Will soon make the clock quit turning round
G A
Well the world ain't worth a dime
D G
When the Liberty Bell has ceased its chime
D A7 D
I think then we'll know it's closin' time
D G
In the middle of a dream
D G
I heard the helpless children scream
D G D
As they walked the plank of a disengaged tomorrow
D G
Though we know the graves are dug
D G
It's been swept beneath the rug
D G D
But no more time will there be left to borrow
Chorus:
G A
The curtain's going down
D G
And the feel of an old ghost town
A
Will soon make the clock quit turning round
G A
Well the world ain't worth a dime
D G
When the Liberty Bell has ceased its chime
D A7 D
I think then we'll know it's closin' time
D G
The testimony's read
D G
And the last regards are said
D G D
While victorious moss is formin' in the alley
D G
The master's with the king
D G
In the center of the ring
D G D
While the bugle sounds the doomsday grande finale
Chorus:
G A
The curtain's going down
D G
And the feel of an old ghost town
A
Will soon make the clock quit turning round

Well the world ain't worth a dime
