In The Shade Of The Old Apple Tree

Tom: Bm

Em7 A7 D A7 D G A7 G D
In the shade of the old apple tree,
G A7 D A7 D G D A7 D
Where the love in your eyes I could see,
D6 A A7 G/B A7 Cdim A7 D G A7 D
When the voice that I heard like the song of a bird,
Cdim D E Bm7/5- Cdim E Cdim Bm7/5- A7
Seemed to whisper sweet music to me.

Em7 A7 D A7 D G A7 G D
I could hear the dull buzz of the bee
G A7 D A7 D G A7 Em7 D
In the blossoms as you said to me,
D6 A A7 G/B A7 Edim A7 D Cdim D G
'With a heart that is true, I'll be wait - ing for you
Gdim A7 D A7 D G D A7 D
'In the shade of the old ap - ple tree.'
