Stan Rogers - Watching the Apples Grow lyrics

C [C] It's early up, Ontario [Am] farm, [C] chicken crow for [Am] day I [F] wish I grew An-[C]-napolis apples up above Fundy's [Am] Bay [F] Oh it [C] seems so [G] far a-[C]-way [C] On the ridge above Acadia's [Am] town to the [C] valley down be-[Am]-low The [F] evening shadow [C] falls upon the family listening to the radi-[Am]-o [F] And [C] watching the [G] apples [C] grow CHORUS [F] Down on the farm, [C] back among the family, [F] Away from Ontari-[C]-o [F] Hear the ladies [C] singing to their men, dancing it heel and [Am] toe [F] And [C] watching the [G] apples [C] grow Ontario, y'know I've seen a place I'd rather be Your scummy lakes and the City of Toronto don't do a damn thing for me I'd rather live by the sea. I've watched the V's of geese go by, the foxfoot in the snow I've climbed the ridge of Gaspereaux Mt., looking to the valley below And watching the apples grow.
