    C                              C/E
    Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton
    F                          F#dim
    Old things they are not forgotten

    So hush little baby
              Gm
    Don't you cry
        C                Am        F
    You know your daddy's bound to die
        C       Am        Dm                G       C
    But all            my trials, Lord will soon be over
