Hushabye Mountain Chords

   
The other versions don't sound right to me, so this is my try.

The Am, Am(maj7) and Am7 is basically a step down of the fourth string:

      Am     Am(maj7) Am7
e|----0-------0--------0-------|
B|----1-------1--------1-------|
G|----2-------1--------0-------|
D|----2-------2--------2-------|
A|----0-------0--------0-------|
E|----x-------x--------x-------|

The B7 can be played in various ways, I like the sound of this one:

e|----2---|
B|----0---|
G|----2---|
D|----1---|
A|----2---|
E|----x---|


  Am       Am(maj7)    Am7      Dm
  A gentle breeze from hushabye mountain

  F      Am         B7      E
  Softly blows o'er lullaby bay

  Am           Am(maj7) Am7            Dm
  It fills the sails of boats that are waiting

  Soon they will fly your troubles to sea



  Dm            A       F        G
