Dolly Parton - Apple Jack guitar chord

Apple Jack

By Dolly Parton

Capo 1

E A E

He lived by the apple orchard in this little orchard shack

E A B7

His real name was Jackson Taylor but I called him Apple Jack

E A E

Now old Apple Jack was loved by everyone he ever knew

E B7 E

Apple Jack picked apples but he picked the banjo too

Chorus:

E A E

Play a song for me Apple Jack, Apple Jack

E B7

Play a song for me and I'll sing

E A E

Play a song for me Apple Jack, Apple Jack

E B7 E

Play a song, let your banjo ring

Now I'd go down to Apple Jack's almost everyday

We'd sit and we'd drink applejack that old Apple Jack had made

Then he'd take his banjo down then he'd ask me if I'd sing

And he would play the banjo and I'd play my tambourine

Chorus

That's when I was just a kid and now that I am grown

All I have are memories, old Apple Jack is gone

Oh, but he left me his banjo and it always takes me back

And every time I play it, I still hear Apple Jack

Chorus 3 times
