There Dis a young cowAboy he Glives on the F#mrange.
His Bmhorse and his Gcattle are his Donly comF#mpanions.
He Bmworks in the Gsaddle and he Dsleeps in the F#mcanyon.
GWaiting for Dsummer, his Apastures to Em7change.A
And Gas the moon rises he Asits by his Dfire.
BmThinkin' about Gwomen and Dglasses of Abeer.
GClosing his eyes as the Adogies retDire
He Bmsings out a Gsong which is Dsoft but it's clear
As Esus4if maybe E7someone could Asus4hear.A7
DGoodnight you GmoonlG/F#ight AladDies.
BmRock-a-bye Gsweet baby DJames.

BmDeep greens and Gblues are the Dcolors I choose.
Won't you Esus4let me go E7down in my Asus4dreams.A
And Grock-a-G/F#bye Asweet baby DJames.

Now the Dfirst of ADecember was Gcovered with F#msnow.
And Bmso was the Gturnpike from DStockbridge to F#mBoston.
Lord, the BmBerkshires seemed Gdreamlike on Daccount of that F#mfrosting.
With Gten miles behDind me and Aten thousand Em7more to go.A
There's a Gsong that they sing when they Atake to the Dhighway.
A Bmsong that they Gsing when they Dtake to the Asea.
A Gsong that they sing of their Ahome in the Dsky.
Maybe Bmyou can Gbelieve it if it Dhelps you to sleep.
But Esus4singing works E7just fine for Asus4me.A
DGoodnight you GmoonG/F#light AladDies.
BmRock-a-bye Gsweet baby DJames.

BmDeep greens and Gblues are the Dcolors I choose.
Won't you Esus4let me go E7down in my Asus4dreams.A
And Grock-aG/F#-bye Asweet baby DJames.
