Ukulele Chords SWEET BABY JAMES By JAMES TAYLOR

  VERSION 1  

Intro :
C B A D+ D

Verse :
   G             D      C            Bm
There is a young cowboy he lives on the range.
Em            C              G       Bm
His horse and his cattle are his only companion.
Em          C             G             Bm
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyon.
C           G           D           Am      D
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change.
C                    D           G
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire.
Em             C         G          D
Thinkin' about women and glasses of beer.
C                       D         G
Closing his eyes as the doggies retire
   Em          C             G
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
   Em       A             D
As If maybe someone could hear.

Chorus :
G             C         D  G
Goodnight you moonlight ladies.
Em         C          G
Rock-a-bye sweet baby James.
Em              C             G
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose.
    Em        A          D+     D
Won't you let me go down in my dreams.
C          D          G
And rock-a-bye sweet baby James.

Verse :
  G          D          C            Bm
Now the first of December was covered with snow.
Em         C             G             Bm
And so was the turnpike from Stockridge to Boston.
   Em                C             G              Bm
Lord the Berkshires seemed dreamlike on account of that frosting.
  C           G           D            Am          D
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go.
    C                             D           G
There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway.
  Em             C              G           D
A Song that they sing when they take to the sea.
  C                              D           G
A Song that they sing of they're home in the sky.
   Em        C              G
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep.
Em            A             D+    D
But singing works just fine for me.

Chorus :
G             C         D  G
Goodnight you moonlight ladies.
Em         C          G
Rock-a-bye sweet baby James.
Em              C             G
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose.
    Em        A          D+     D
Won't you let me go down in my dreams.
C          D          G
And rock-a-bye sweet baby James
