[Intro 1]
[Dm][D][Dm][D]
[Dm](Woo, [D]woo[Dm])[D]

[Verse 1]
A [Dm]time to be [A]reaping
A [Dm]time to be [C]sowing
The [F]green leaves of [Gm]summer
Are [E]calling me [A]home

[Chorus 1]
Twas so [D]good to be [Gm]young then
In the [C]season of [F]plenty
When the [Dm]catfish were [E]jumping
As [Dm]high as the [A]sky

[Verse 2]
A [Dm]time just for [A]planting
A [Dm]time just for [C]ploughing
A [F]time to be [Gm]courting
A [E]girl of your [A]own

[Chorus 2]
Twas so [D]good to be [Gm]young then
To be [C]close to the [F]earth
And to [Dm]stand by your [E]wife
At the [Dm]mo me[A]nt of bi[Dm]rth[D]

[Interlude 1]
[Dm](Woo)[D][Dm][D]

[Verse 3]
A [Dm]time to be [A]reaping
A [Dm]time to be [C]sowing
A [F]time just for [Gm]living
A [E]place for to [A]die

[Chorus 3]
Twas so [D]good to be [Gm]young then
To be [C]close to the [F]earth
Now the [Dm]green leaves of [E]summer
Are [Dm]call[A]ing me h[Dm]ome
Twas so [D]good to be [Gm]young then
To be [C]close to the [F]earth
Now the [Dm]green leaves of [E]summer
Are [Dm]call[A]ing me h[Dm]ome[D]
