Chords
[Verse 1]
G Em A There Dis a young cowAboy, he Glives on the range.F#m His Bmhorse and his caGttle are his onDly compaF#mnions
He Bmworks in the saGddle and he Dsleeps in the caF#mnyons, Gwaiting for Dsummer, his paAstures to change Em
A GAnd as the moon rises he Asits by his fire,D Bmthinking about Gwomen and Dglasses of beAer
And Gclosing his eyes as the doAgies retire,D he Bmsings out a songG which is softD but it's clear
as Bmif maybe someEone could hear... A
[Chorus]
DGoodnight you Gmoon light Aladies,D Bmrockabye Gsweet baby James D
BmDeep greens and bluesG are the coDlors I choose, won't you Bmlet me go downE in my dreams? A
And Grockabye Asweet baby James D
[Verse 2]
Now the Dfirst of DeceAmber was Gcovered with snow F#m
BmSo was the turnGpike from DStockbridge to BoF#mston
Though the BmBerkshires seemed Gdreamlike on aDccount of that froF#msting
With Gten miles behindD me and Aten thousand moreEm to go
A There's a Gsong that they sing when they Atake to the highDway
BmSong that they Gsing when they Dtake to the sea A
GSong that they sing of their homeA in the sky,D maybe Bmyou can believeG it if it Dhelps you to sleep
But Bmsinging works justE fine for me A
[Chorus]
So, Dgoodnight you Gmoon light Aladies,D Bmrockabye Gsweet baby James D
BmDeep greens and Gblues are the Dcolors I choose, won't you Bmlet me go downE in my dreams? A
And Grockabye Asweet baby James D
