Default "Who Knows Where the Time Goes" chords in open C tuning?

Hi!

This is the chords and lyrics to a song I want to learn in open C tuning. It was sung by the late great folk singer Sandi Denny and wonder what the chords would be (diagrams if you know). These chords are in regular EADGBE tuning. This is the song list of chords followed by the chords/lyrics of the song:

E = 022100 G#m = 466444 Esus4 = 022200

F#m11/E = 044200 Am = 577555 Badd11 = 799800

Emaj7 = 066400 A = x02220 Aadd9 = 577600

F#m = 244222 Asus4 = x02230 F#m7 = 242222

Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming,

A Asus4 A E Esus4 E Badd11 Aadd9

I have no thought of time, ...for who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time goes-------?

E F#m11/E Emaj7 F#m11/E

Sad deserted shore, ...your fickle friends are leaving--------,

E F#m11/E Emaj7 F#m11/E

Ah, but then you know ...it's time for them ...to go---------



[Verse 4]

F#m G#m Am G#m

But ...I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving,

A Asus4 A E Esus4 E Badd11 Aadd9

I ...do not count the time, ...for who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time----- goes-------?

And I am not alone, while my love ...is near me,

E F#m11/E Emaj7 F#m11/E

I know it will be so, until it's time to go-------------



[Verse 6]

F#m G#m Am G#m

So ...come the storms of winter, ...and then the birds of ...spring again,

A Asus4 A E Esus4 E Badd11 Aadd9

I have no fear of time, ...for who knows how my love grows?

And who knows where the time goes------------?
