Sweet Baby James - James Taylor | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G Em A      D             A       G                  F#m
      There is a young cowboy, he lives on the range.
    Bm              G              D       F#m
His horse and his cattle are his only companions
   Bm             G           D               F#m
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons,
G           D             A               Em
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change
A G                        A                D
  And as the moon rises he sits by his fire,
Bm             G         D            A
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
    G                         A           D
And closing his eyes as the dogies retire,
   Bm              G             D
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
   Bm           E                A
As if maybe someone could hear...

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D             G          A      D
Goodnight you moon light ladies,
Bm       G               D
Rockabye sweet baby James
Bm                   G          D
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose,
          Bm            E             A
Won't you let me go down in my dreams?
    G        A               D
And rockabye sweet baby James

[Verse 2]
---------------------
        D            A        G                F#m
Now the first of December was covered with snow
Bm             G         D                F#m
So was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
           Bm                G             D                 F#m
Though the Berkshires seemed dreamlike on account of that frosting
     G               D       A                Em
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more  to go
A          G                             A               D
 There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
Bm             G              D              A
Song that they sing when they take to the sea
G                                A           D
Song that they sing of their home in the sky,
      Bm             G         D
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
    Bm                E           A
But singing works just fine for me

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
    D             G          A      D
So, goodnight you moon light ladies,
Bm       G               D
Rockabye sweet baby James
Bm              G             D
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose,
          Bm            E             A
Won't you let me go down in my dreams?
    G        A               D
And rockabye sweet baby James
