I’m 
looking over a key called  clover
That A7
overlooked before.
It’s D7
used 
as a shortcut, by G
pe

style
,
For A
cut
ting and pasting, and D7
sav
ing a file.
G
Takes 
some retraining, but who’s complaining?
Those A7
men
us were such a chore.
Am
I’m

I’m looking over a key called  clover
That I overlooked before.
The  O  is for Open; it’s like double-click.
The  N  makes a New one, but three times as quick.
The  Q  is for quitting; it means you’re splitting.
The  S  means it’s time to store.
I’m looking over a key called  clover
That I overlooked before.

I’m looking over a key called  clover
That I overlooked before.
To  X  a selection is crossing it out.
The  V  will revive it, and spread it about.
No use explaining the keys remaining;
I still don’t know what they’re for.
But I’m looking over a key called  clover
That I overlooked before.
