This is the two guitar parts for "Apple Tree" by the Lemmings. Great song,

particular

popular with the ladies- wink wink. I didn't bother tabbing out the

acoustic parts since they are all open chords that are defined near the

bottom of the

page. This song was written by Otto; John Paul played electric guitar, Chaz

played

acoustic, and otto did keyboards. Herb played drums.

Anyone hear the version on the anthology where its just Otto at the

piano? Music critic Lester Bangs said it "...had the momentum and force

of a fully loaded locomotive speeding down a mountain without any

chance of a suitable conclusion...Otto...defuses this...only by

utilzising the brilliant vaudville-ish ending to bring this highly

symbolic song full-circle."
