The Green Leaves Of Summer

Oooooooooooh, oooh ooh.....

Am            E       Am              G
A time to be reaping, a time to be sowing
C    Dm           E          Am
The green leaves of summer are calling me home
   G                    Dm         G           C
It was good to be young then in the season of plenty
  Am                 Dm          F            E
When the catfish were jumping as high as the sky.

Am                  E         Am               G
A time just for planting, a time just for plowing
C     Dm            E         Am
A time to be courting a girl of your own
G                    Dm         G                 C
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
Am                Dm            F           E
And to stand by your wife, at the moment of birth.

Am            E       Am              G
A time to be reaping, a time to be sowing
C     Dm              E        Am
A time just for living, a place for to die.
G                    Dm         G                 C
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
Am                       Dm          F     E   Am
Now the green leaves of Summer are calling me home

G                    Dm         G                 C
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
Am                       Dm         F     E    Am
Now the green leaves of Summer are calling me home

Ooooooooooooooh, oooh oooh..
