N.C               A     E A                 
There was a tall oak tree 
               F#m      A     E 
That loved the babblin' brook 
F#m              A     E 
And the babblin' brook 
A         F#m          A E F#m 
Loved the mountain high 
                   A       E A 
And the mountain high..... 
                    F#m 
Loved the sky above 
             B               
You know The Creator looked down 
    E         E7         A   D     A     
And saw everything was love love love 


verse 2 

N.C            A    E A 
Then he took a bone 
                   E A 
And a piece of mud  
          F#m       A     E A 
He made a man and a woman 
      E         A     E A 
To be flesh and blood 
          E             A     E A  
But then along came the devil 
                          E  F#m 
From up out of the ground  
            B 
You know    he tempted woman 
    E           E7      A      D A 
And that spread sin all around  


         D              Bb 
If she'd left that apple 

On the apple tree 
              F        Bb 
There'd be no tears an sorrow 

We'd live eternally

But then along came Man

And burned the oak tree down 
                           D# Bb 
And now the babblin' brook 
                         D# Bb 
Well it's a solid ground 
                       D# Bb 
And the mountains high 
                         Dm Gm  
They don't stand so high 
              C 
And there's a cloud of smoke 
     F             F7         Bb  D# Bb  
That covers up the clear blue sky  

 
                        B E B 
If she'd left that apple 
                  E B 
On the apple tree 
                              E B 
There'd be no tears an sorrow 
          E     B 
We'd live eternally
