Charolette's Web - Mother Earth and Father Time Chords

I'm not a big fan of the Charolette's Web cartoon from 1973, but despite my dislike of the film, I really like Charolette as a character in it, and I particularly love this song she sings.

Enjoy the chords.

Chords by: Gokenshadow
 
         Dm          G
How very special are we
           Em        Am
For just a moment to be
        Dm      F      C     C7
Part of life’s eternal rhyme
         Dm          G
How very special are we
           Em         Am
To have on our family tree
       C         G7     C
Mother Earth and Father Time
 
             Dm       G
He turns the seasons around
           Em          Am
And so she changes her gown
          Dm    F             C      C7
But they always look in their prime
           Dm            G
They go on dancing their dance
         Em        Am
Of every lasting romance
       C         G7     C
Mother Earth and Father Time
 
    F              C
The summer larks return to sing
   F                C
Oh what a gift they give
     Em               Am
Then autumn days grow short and cold
D                G    G7
Oh what a joy to live
 
         Dm          G
How very special are we
           Em        Am
For just a moment to be
        Dm      F      C      A7
Part of life’s eternal rhyme
         Dm          G
How very special are we
           Em         Am
To have on our family tree
       C         G7     C
Mother Earth and Father Time
