Chords for James Taylor - Sweet Baby James (BBC In Concert, Nov 16, 1970)

_ _ [F#] _ _ _ [D#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] Well, there's a young cowboy, [F#] he lives [Fm] on the range
_ [A#m] His horse and his cattle [C#] are his only [Fm] companions
_ _ He works [F#] in the saddle [C#] and he sleeps in [Fm] the canyons
[F#] Just waiting for summer, [G#] his pastures [D#m] to change
_ _ _ [G#] _
_ [F#] And as the moon [D#] rises, he sits [C#] by his fire
[A#m] Thinking [F#] about women [C#] and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes as the doggies retire
[A#m] He sings [F#] out a song which [C#] is soft but it's clear
[A#] As if [D#] maybe someone could hear
_ _ [G#] _ _
[C#] He says, goodnight you moonlight ladies
[A#m] Rock-a [F#]-bye my sweet [C#] baby James _
Deep [F#] greens and blues, [C#] all the colors I choose
Won't you let [D#] me go down in my dreams?
[F#] Yes and rock-a-bye sweet [C#] baby James
_ Now the first of December, it was covered [Fm] with snow
Yes [A#m] and so was the [C#] turnpike from [Fm] Stockbridge to Boston
_ Lord, the [F#] Berkshires seem [C#] dreamlike on account of that [Fm] frost
With ten [C#] miles behind me [G#] and ten [D#m] thousand more to go
[G#] _ _
_ [C#] There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
[A#m] A song that [F#] they sing when [C#] they take to the sea
[F#] There's a song that they sing of their home [C#] in the sky
[A#] And baby you can [F#] believe it [C#] if it helps you to sleep
[A#] But singing [D#] seems to work fine for me
_ [G#] _ _ _
[C#] So goodnight [C#] you moonlight _ ladies
[A#m] Rock-a-bye [F#] my sweet baby [C#] James
_ [A#m]
Deep [F#] greens and blues, [C#] all the colors I choose
[A#m] Won't you let me [D#] go down in my dreams?
It's [C#] time to rock [D#m]-a-bye sweet [C#] baby James
