Tonart: D major
Verse 1
A
This is a story, as I remember it,
of my first seeing Haley's Comet,
or my seeing Haley's Comet.
This was in Lexington, Kentucky,
and I was living at the Transylvania Inn,
the place I was born.
Em
A
My mother was operating that inn.
My father was a horse trainer.
It must have been in the light spring
or early summer.
My mother came to me
and said,
let's go upstairs on the veranda.
She said, I want you to
see Haley's Comet.
F#m
And to me it was only another

A
F#m
star.
A
So every night I went up and watched.
F#m
Bsus4
A
And as it got closer,
F#m
A
what I thought was a star,
F#m
started to take on the
look of a ball of fire
F#sus4
F#m
with a tail behind it.

And as it came around,
it got bigger and bigger,
and lower and lower,
F#m

until finally one night,
it was over the tattersall's barn.

It looked like that it was just

and it might fall at

any minute.

The horses in the barn were reppin'.

It was a nicker of fear.
My father and several other men
went to the barn
to try to quiet the horses.
And I went to my mother

and I said, Mother, I'm afraid.
She says, so am I.
I said, what can I do?
She said, well,

ask God to spare us.

It was so bright

that there was
