[C]
When apples still grow in November, when [F]
blossoms [C] still grow on [G] each tree,
when [F]
leaves are still [Em] green [C] in December, [G] it's then that our land will be [A] free.
[Am] [C] [Fm] I wander [F] her hills [G] [C] and valleys, [F] and still [Fm] through my sorrow [E] I see
a [F] land that has never [G] [C] known freedom, [G] and only her rivers [A] run free.
[Am] [G] [F] I drink to [G] the [C] death of her manhood, [F] those men who [C] would rather have died
[G] [F] than to live in the cold [G] [C] chains of bondage, to [G] bring back their rights were [Am] denied.
[Gm] [D] Oh, where [Ab]
are you [A] now [C] when we need you?
[F] What burns where the flame used [E] to be?
Are [Fm] you gone like the snows of [G] [C] last winter, [G] and only her rivers [Am] run free?
[Em] [F] What good is in [G] youth when [C] it's ageing?
[F] What joy are in eyes that can [E] see
when [F] there's sorrow and sunshine [G] and [C] flowers, [G] and only her rivers [Am] run free?
