From Happy Sad, 1968

(capo at the first fret)

E / / / / / (x2)

D         Am
I was lost without a song
Bm            F#m
Without a melody
D            Am
You came into my hotel life
Bm                 F#m
You made my room a home
G             Bm        E             D
Ah now, mama, don't you know what you done

Ah, you made the sunshine in the city
Oh, you warmed my heart
You changed an old man filled with pity
Back to a child again
Ah now, mama, can't you see what you done

D / / / / / Am / / / / /
Bm / / / / / F#m / / / / /
D / / / / / Am / / / / /
Bm / / / / / F#m / / / / /
G / / Bm / / E / / / / /

So tell me darlin' if the feeling's wrong
Ah, don't waste another day
Lord, the saddest thing I've ever known
Was to watch it die away
G             D         E
Ah now, mama, don't you lie

E              Cdim        D                  Am7
Oh, how can my giving find the rhythm and the time
B        E             Esus          E  E7  E
Of you unless you sing your songs to me
    E             Cdim            G           Am7
The smell of your sweet skin does entangle my dreams
B              E           Esus        E
Oh may I stand here awhile living your smile

Em                Am7  B                E
Oh, how could you ever know what you've done
Em                       Am7   B       E
You warmed my heart when I was so all alone
    Bm7   F#m  G  A
But all I have to give
       Bm
Are my dreams
   (Bm)       F#m   Bm
Of coming and going forever
(Bm)       F#m       Bm
Inside the rivers of time
       F#m     Em
You'll find me waiting
           D    C#sus4        C#
For you to find peace in your mind
D  E  D   F#    B
So we can love again

C / / / / / / Em / / / / /
C / / / / / / Em / / / / /
C / / D / / Em / / / / /
C / / D / / Em / / / / /

Em          D
I feel what you feel
   Bbdim         E
If you feel what you feel
Em             D
And I see what you see
   Bbdim        E
If you see what you see
      A    E
So it goes on and on
      A     E
On it goes, on and on
     Em           D
It's my heart and your heart
     Bbdim        E
It's our hearts together
Em           D
You sing and I'll bring
      Bbdim       E
We'll both love together
          A              E
And all I know is let it grow
           A                E   E7
All you'll find is peace of mind

The seventh chords in the last bit are just guesses on my part.
Feel free to take liberties with any part that doesn't sound
right to you.
