Am                       D                          Em
  Thinkin' 'bout the the times that you drove in my car
 
Am                D                    Em
  Thinkin' that I might have drove you too far
 
Cmaj7                        Em                        Bm
  And I'm thinkin' 'bout the love that you laid on the table

Am                D                    Em
  Told you not to wander 'round in the dark
 
Am                   D                          Em
  Told you 'bout the swans that may live in the park
 
Cmaj7                    Em                       Bm
  And I told you 'bout a kid, now he's married to Maybell

D       Cmaj7             G         D
  Yes I told you that the life goes up and down
 
D           Cmaj7          G           D
  Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round
 
D         Cmaj7           G       D
  And you better pick yourself up off the ground
 
  Cmaj7               G       D
Before they bring the curtain down
 
D       Cmaj7               G       D
 Yes, before they bring the curtain down

How to play

I think the G in the verse should be D.
paranoid70 - I agree. I've played against Cream, EC and EC live. They all sound like a D. Also, I've always played a Bm into an Am at the end of each verse. I'll have to try what's shown here. When I've seen him Live he plays everything (except the solo) in first position.
