[Intro] G G/F# Em A7
[Primera Parte]
D A
There is a young cowboy
G F#m
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
Waiting for summer
A Em A A7
His pastures to change
[Segunda Parte]
G A D
And as the moon rises, he sits by his fire
Bm G D A
Thinkin' about women and glasses of beer
G A D
Closing his eyes as the dogies retire
Bm G D
He sings out a song which is soft, but it's clear
Bm7 E A A4 A
As if maybe someone could hear
[Estribillo]
D G A D
Goodnight, you moonlight ladies
Bm G D
Rockabye, sweet baby James
Bm G
Deep greens and blues
D
Are the colors I choose
Bm7 E A A4 A
Won't you let me go down in my dreams?
G A D D9 D
And rockabye, sweet baby James
[Tercera Parte]
D A
Now, the first of December
G F#m
Was covered with snow
Bm G
And so was the turnpike
D F#m
From Stockbridge to Boston
Bm
Lord, the Berkshires seemed
G D F#m
Dreamlike on account of that frostin'
G D
With ten miles behind me
A Em A A7
And ten thousand more to go, whoa
[Cuarta Parte]
G
There's a song that they sing
A D
When they take to the highway
Bm G
A song that they sing
D A
When they take to the sea
G
A song that they sing
A D
Of their home in the sky
Bm G
Maybe you can believe it
D Bm7
If it helps you to sleep
E A A4 A
But singing works just fine for me
[Estribillo Final]
D G A D
So, goodnight, you moonlight ladies
Bm G D
Rockabye, sweet baby James
Bm G
Deep greens and blues
D
Are the colors I choose
Bm7 E A A4 A
Won't you let me go down in my dreams?
G A D D9 D
And rockabye, sweet baby James
