Gd Ge Gf Ge Gd Ge Gf Ge 
G (320003@1)                       
There's a house on a hill 
     C (x32010@1)                     G (320003@1)  
By a worn down weathered old mill 
                 D (xx0232@1)                       
In the valley be-low where the river winds 
                             G (320003@1)   
There's no such thing as bad times 
G (320003@1)                       
And a soft southern flame 
   C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)  
Oh Cotton Jenny's her name 
                 D (xx0232@1)                       
And she wakes me up when the sun goes down 
                          G (320003@1)   
And the wheels of love go round 
       
Chorus 
G (320003@1)               C (x32010@1)   
Wheels of love go round 
        G (320003@1)            A (x02220@1)   
Love go round, love go round 
              D (xx0232@1)   
What a joyful sound 
        G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)             D (xx0232@1)   
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend 
                       G (320003@1)   
But then the wheels go round 
                        
Gd Ge Gf Ge Gd Ge Gf Ge 
G (320003@1)                     
When the new day begins 
     C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1) 
I go down to the cotton gin 
              D (xx0232@1)                      
And I make my time worth while to them 
                       G (320003@1)  
Then I climb back up a-gain 
G (320003@1)                       
And she waits by the door 
   C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)  
Oh Cotton Jenny I'm sore 
                D (xx0232@1)                          
And she rubs my feet while the sun goes down 
                          G (320003@1)   
And the wheels of love go round 
G (320003@1)               C (x32010@1)   
Wheels of love go round 
        G (320003@1)            A (x02220@1)   
Love go round, love go round 
              D (xx0232@1)   
What a joyful sound 
        G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)             D (xx0232@1)   
I ain't got a penny for Cotton Jenny to spend 
                       G (320003@1)   
But then the wheels go round

G (320003@1)                      
In the hot, sickly south 
          C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)   
When they say we'll shut my mouth 
               D (xx0232@1)                        
I can never be free from the cotton grind 
                        G (320003@1)  
But I know I got what's mine 
G (320003@1)                         
She's a soft southern flame 
   C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)  
Oh Cotton Jenny's her name 
             D (xx0232@1)
