G I’m | looking over a key called clover |
That | A7 I | overlooked before. |
It’s | D7 used | as a shortcut, by | G pe | ople with | E7 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 | looking | Cm ov | er a | G key | called | E7 clo | ver |
That | A7 I | over | D7 looked | be | G fore | . |
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.
