Tuning:standard

Cover of John Hartford's song.

This is not a perfect transcription, but copy the dotted rhythm he uses here 
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymfcEcoIcXE) and it should feel very close.

end of a section.)

Someday my baby, when I am a man,
and others have taught me
the best that they can
they'll sell me a suit 
they'll cut off my hair
and send me to work in tall buildings

So it's goodbye to the sunshine
goodbye to the dew
goodbye to the flowers
and goodbye to you
I'm off to the subway
I must not be late
I'm going to work in tall buildings

When I'm retired
My life is my own
I made all the payments
it's time to go home
and wonder what happened 
betwixt and between
when I went to work in tall buildings

So it's goodbye to the sunshine
goodbye to the dew
goodbye to the flowers
and goodbye to you
I'm off to the subway
I must not be late
I'm going to work in tall buildings

So it's goodbye to the sunshine
goodbye to the dew
goodbye to the flowers
and goodbye to you
I'm off to the subway
I must not be late
I'm going to work in tall buildings
