Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
Cornmeal mush is all you took
for 30 ,000 miles on foot
G 
Come in side,
D 
stay a while I'll fix you things to eat
I'll offer you some clothes to lose
A soft bed and someone else's shoes
G 
Come inside, stay a while
D 
Rest your tired feet
Haunted by a recurring dream
Of the girl you left hanging
from an apple
Johnny
G 
D 
Appleseed wanders the countryside
G 
D 
Keeping to his task to keep out the rest

Appleseed right fresh from

Heaven's side
G 
D 
Please, let me make it up to strangers
In
Ohio, the farmer's wives
Thanked you with fresh apple pie
G 
And hurried to mend the tears
D 
in your pants
dumbfounded by their kindness and
embarrassed by your shyness
G 
you slipped out the back door
D 
at the first chance
haunted by a recurring dream of the girl
you left hanging from an apple tree
Johnny

Please let me make it up to strangers
The famished cow you rescued
from the wealthy
rotten farmer
John
G 
D 
Offered in gratitude to turn itself to gold
But you declined the offer,
saying that was not for profit
G 
And ushered the straggler
D 
back into her fold
Haunted by a recurring dream of the girl
you left hanging from an apple tree
Johnny
