[Dm] [G] [C]
Within the woodlands [Bbm] flowery [Am]-gladed, By the oak [G] trees mossy [C]-moved,
The shining [F] grass blades timber [Am]
-shaded, Now do quiver [Ab] on [G] the foot,
[Em] And [Fm] birds do [Em] whistle [G] overhead, And [F] water's bubbling [G]
in its bed,
And [C] there for me [Fm] the apple [E] tree do [D]
lean, [Am] Low in [Gb] linden [C]
-leaf,
[A]
[G] [C]
When leaves that lately [G] were a [Am]
-springing, [Fm] Now do fade [G] within [C] the cause,
And painted birds do hush [Bb] their [Ab] singing, Up upon the timber [Gm] [G]-tops,
And brown [Fm]-leaf [G] fruits are turning red, [Em]
In cloudless [B] sunshine [G] overhead.
With fruit for [G] me [A] the apple tree do [Dm] lean, [G] [C]
[D]
[G] [C]
Let other folk [Bb] make money [Am] faster,
In the [G] air of dark-groomed towns, [C] I don't dread [Am] a peevish [Am] master,
[Fm] Though no man may [A] heed my [G] frowns, [F] I be free to [G] go abroad,
Or [A] take again my [D] homeward [G] road, To where for [C] me [F] the apple tree do [D] lean.
