I like playing the “C” as “C/G” like this:
C CM7 C7
E|---0---0---0----|
B|---1---0---1----|
G|---0---0---3----|
D|---2---2---2----|
A|---3---3---3----|
E|---3---3---0----|I Also Like To Add “Fmaj7” As A Transition
Between “F” To “Dm”
(And Sometimes From “G7” To “Dm”)
[Intro]
C Cmaj7 C7 X2
[Verse]
C Cmaj7 C7 Lying in the meadow green F Dm Dangling legs in a mountain stream G7 Dm From the limb, we could jump right in G7 C Again and again and again and again Cmaj7 C7 Up in the orchard on the hill F Dm Sat right down and had our fill G7 Dm And though the clouds are touched with grey G7 C We know no rain will fall today
[Chorus]
C Cmaj7 C7 So let's take the long way home F Dm And circle 'round the standing stone G7 Dm Through the fields and the old barway G7 We fill our pockets up with pecans along C the way
[Verse]
Cmaj7 C7 All along the railroad track F Dm Slip off that rail, break your back G7 Dm Hear the sound of the croaking toad G7 C The sun so round and red and low
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 C7 Summertime, F Dm summertime G7 Dm Summertime must yield to fall G7 C And that's what hurts me most of all
[Outro]
Cmaj7 C7 Summertime, F Dm summertime G7 Dm Said goodbye at the garden wall G7 Dm From the house, I can hear my momma callin' G7 Dm Winter come to us all, my friend G7 C Just as every childhood… has an end
