This is the correct way of playin the song gotten from the man himself
I play it with a capo on the second fret.

C           G        C
When apples stil grow in November
     F              C              G
When blossoms still bloom on each tree
     F                         C
When leaves are still green in December
     G                          Am
Its then that your land will be free.
  F                    C
I wonder her hills and valleys
    F                         E
And still through my sorrow i see
  F                          C
A land that has never known freedom
G                   Am
Only her rivers run free

I drink to the death of her manhood
Those men who would rather have died
Than to live in the cold chains of bondage
To bring back their rights were denied

Where are you now when we need you?
What burns where the flame used to be?
Are you gone like the snows of last winter?
When only her rivers run free.

How sweet is life but we're cryin
How mellow the wine but we're dry
How fragrant the rose but its dyin
How gentle the wind but it sighs

What good is in youth when its aging?
What use are in eyes that can see
When theres sorrow in sunshine and flowers
And only her rivers run free............
