Dm    D    Dm    D
Ooooh oooh ooooh oooh
 
[Verse 1]
  Dm         A          Dm         C
A time to be reaping, a time to be sowing
    F               Gm         E          A
The green leaves of summer are calling me home
         D          Gm                C         F
T'was so good to be young then in the season of plenty
         Dm           E          Dm          A   Dm
When the catfish were jumping as high as the sky
 
[Verse 2]
  Dm            A           Dm            C
A time just for planting, a time just for plowing
  F          Gm         E            A
A time to be courting a girl of your own
         D          Gm                C            F
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
       Dm            E            Dm  A     Dm   D
And to stand by your wife, at the moment of birth
 
Dm    D    Dm    D
Ooooh oooh
 
[Verse 3]
  Dm         A          Dm         C
A time to be reaping, a time to be sowing
    F               Gm         E          A
A time just for living, a place for to die
        D           Gm                C         F
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
        Dm           E         Dm          A   Dm
Now the green leaves of summer are calling me home
 
[Outro]
         D          Gm                C         F
T'was so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
        Dm           E         Dm          A   Dm  D
Now the green leaves of summer are calling me home
 
Dm    D    Dm    D
Ooooh oooh ooooh oooh
