[Dm] Ooh, [D] ooh. [Dm] Ooh, [D] ooh.
A [Dm] time to be [A7] reaping; a [Dm] time to be [C] sowing
The [F] green leaves of [Gm] summer are [E7] calling me [A7] home
Twas so [D7-alt] good to be [Gm] young then
In the [C7] season of [F] plenty
When the [Dm] catfish were [E7] jumping
As [Dm] high as the [A7] sky
A [Dm] time just for [A7] planting; a [Dm] time just for [C] plowing
A [F] time to be [Gm] courting a [E7] girl of your [A7] own
Twas so [D7-alt] good to be [Gm] young then
To be [C7] close to the [F] earth
And to [Dm] stand by your [E7] wife
At the [Dm] mo-[A7]ment of [Dm] birth [D]
[Dm] Ooh, [D] ooh.
A [Dm] time to be [A7] reaping; a [Dm] time to be [C] sowing
A [F] time just for [Gm] living; a [E7] place for to [A7] die
Twas so [D7-alt] good to be [Gm] young then
To be [C7] close to the [F] earth
Now the [Dm] green leaves of [E7] summer
Are [Dm] call-[A7]ing me [Dm] home
Twas so [D7-alt] good to be [Gm] young then
To be [C7] close to the [F] earth
Now the [Dm] green leaves of [E7] summer
Are [Dm] call-[A7]ing me [Dm] home [D]
[Dm] Ooh, [D] ooh. [Dm] Ooh, [D] ooh.
