Only Our Rivers Run Free Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

G When apples stDill grow in NoveGmber

C When blossoGms still bloom fromD each tree

C When leaves are still grGeen in December

D It's then Bmthat our land wiEmll be free

C I wander her hills anGd her valleys

C And still through my sDorrow I see

C A land that has neverG know freedom

D And oBmnly her riversEm run free

I drink to the death of her manhood

Those men who'd rather have died

Than to live in the cold chains of bondage

To bring back thier rights were denied

Oh where are you now that we need you

What burns where the flame used to be

Are ye gone like the snows of last winter

And will only our ivers run free

How sweet is life but we're crying

How mellow the wine but we're dry

How fragrant the rose but it's dying

How gentle the wind but it sighs

What good is in youth when it's aging

What joy is in eyes that can't see

When there's sorrow in sunshine and laughter

And still only our rivers run free
