Are My Thoughts with You?

This one is in Bb, so capo on 3. The descending bass runs through most of the song. And note again the modulation at the end.

I'm gonna plant me some (G) seeds (G/f#) (G/e) (G/d) 
I'm gonna grow me an (C) ocean (C/b) (Am) (Am/g)
Cut down some (D/f#) trees (D/e) (D) (D/c) 
And build me an (G) island

I'm gonna stand on the (G) corner (G/f#) (G/e) (G/d) 
I'm gonna flag down a (C) streetcar (C/b) (Am) (Am/g)
Go somewhere and (D/f#) phone her (D/e) (D) (D/c) 
And ask her where my (G) thoughts are 

I'm gonna say to her:

Are my thoughts with (G) you (G/f#) babe (G/e) (G/d) 
How twisted (C) they are, babe (C/b) (Am) (Am/g)
Since you went  (D/f#) away, (D/e) babe (D) (D/c) 
I ain't been thinking too (G) straight

If that don't get (G) through (G/f#) (G/e) (G/d)
I'm gonna build me a (C) flower (C/b) (Am) (Am/g)
And sit down in the morning (D/f#) dew (D/e) (D) (D/c) 
And kiss it every (G) hour

Yes I'm gonna:

(G) Turn out the lights, (G/f#) turn on the night
(G/e) Give up the fight, (G/d) catch me a kite
(C) Go for a flight, (C/b) who cares what's right or (Am) wrong (Am/g)
When I (D/f#) get to the moon, (D/e) rent me a room
(D) Sit in the gloom by the telephone (D/c)

I'm gonna cry to her:

Are my thoughts with (G) you (G/f#) (G/e) (G/d)
How twisted, babe, (C)  are they (C/b) (Am) (Am/g)
Since you left me this (D/f#) way, babe (D/e) (D) (D/c) 
I just ain't thinking too (Em) straight (Em/d) (C) (A)
