Cotton Jenny Tabulatur von Gordon Lightfoot (für Baryton)

G                    C                        G
1. There's a house on a hill by a worn down, weathered old mill
2. When a new day begins I go down to the cotton gin
3. In the hot, sickly south, when they say "well shut my mouth"

                    D
1. In the valley below where the river winds
2. And I make my time worthwhile to them
3. I can never be free from the cotton grind

                                 G
1. There's no such thing as bad times
2. Then I climb back up again
3. But I know I've got what's mine

          G                        C                  G
1. And a soft southern flame,  oh Cotton Jenny's her name
2. Then she waits by the door, oh Cotton Jenny,  I'm sore
3. With a soft southern flame, oh Cotton Jenny's her name

                 D
1. She wakes me up when the sun goes down
2. And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down
3. She wakes me up when the sun goes down

Chorus:
                            G
And the wheel of love goes 'round

                   C               G
Wheels of love go 'round, love go 'round

         A                D       D7
Love go 'round, a joyful sound

         G               C               D
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend

                        G
But then the wheels go 'round
