Cotton fields

E                    E7
When I was a little bitty baby

                            A7
My mama would rock me in a cradle

                                                   B7
In them old cotton fields back home

           E                      E7 
It was down in Louisiana

                      A7                     E
Just about a mile from Texarkana

             B7                                E          e7
In them old cotton fields back home

                           A7
An'  when them cotton balls get rotten

               E
You can pick very much cotton

                                                  B7         
In them old cotton fields back home

           E                     E7
It was down in Louisiana

                      A7                     E
Just about a mile from Texarkana

             B7                                E
In them old cotton fields back home

Þykkvabæjar (Árni Johnsen)

E                     E7
Þegar ég var pínulítill patti

                                 A7                 E
var mamma vön að vagga mér í vöggu

                                                      B7  
í þeim gömlu kartöflugörðunum heima

                E                       E7
Það var í miðjum Þykkvabænum

                                 A                          E
svona einn komma sex kílómetra frá sænum

           B7                                     E             E7
í þeim gömlu kartöflugörðunum heima

                  A7
En þegar kartöflurnar far' að mygla

           E
hætta þær að fara í fyrsta flokk

                                                      B7
Í þeim gömlu kartöflugörðunum heima

               E                       E7
Það var í miðjum Þykkvabænum

                                 A                          E
svona einn komma sex kílómetra frá sænum

                      B7                          E
í þeim gömlu kartöflugörðunum heima
