[Verse 1]
Em D Em D Em D Em D
Once in a summertime garden lived a little apple tree
G D C D
And the man who owned it wanted it to be picked
G D Em D
And so he sent forth to hire me
Em D
[Pre-chorus]
Em D Em D
Well, I've traveled the mountains
Em D Em D
And I've traveled the sea
G D C
But a never in my traveling days
D G D Em D
Have I ever seen a little apple smile at me
Em D Em
[Chorus]
G D
Laugh, oh laugh a little apple
G C
Autumn is waiting, you'd better be careful
G D Em D
For it will bring you down if it ever sees you wearing a frown
G D
So laugh, oh laugh a little apple
Em D Em
[Verse 2]
Em D Em D
Well, all the apples were hiding
Em D Em D
Frightened that they might be plucked
G C G D
And every time that somebody passed
G D Em D
All except that one little apple ducked
[Pre-chorus]
Em D Em D
Well, I've traveled the mountains
Em D Em D
And I've traveled the sea
G D C
But a never in my traveling days
D G D Em D
Have I ever seen a little apple smile at me
Em D Em
[Chorus]
G D
Laugh, oh laugh a little apple
G C
Autumn is waiting, you'd better be careful
G D Em D
For it will bring you down if it ever sees you wearing a frown
G D
So laugh, oh laugh a little apple
[Chorus]
G D
Laugh, oh laugh a little apple
G C
Autumn is waiting, you'd better be careful
G D Em D
For it will bring you down if it ever sees you wearing a frown
G D
So laugh, oh laugh a little apple
