The Long Small Room [EDWARD THOMAS poem set to music]
THE long small room (Edward Thomas)
A G D
THE long small room that showed willows in the west
A G Bm
Narrowed up to the end the fireplace filled,
A G D Em
Although not wide. I liked it. No one guessed
G A Bm
What need or accident made them so build.

A D A
Only the moon, the mouse, and the sparrow peeped
Bm A G
In from the ivy round the casement thick.
Am D
Of all they saw and heard there they shall keep
F C A7
The tale for the old ivy and older brick.

When I look back I am like moon, sparrow, and mouse
That witnessed what they could never understand
Or alter or prevent in the dark house.
One thing remains the same--this is my right hand

Crawling crab-like over the clean white page,
Resting awhile each morning on the pillow,
Then once more starting to crawl on towards age.
The hundred last leaves stream upon the willow.
