Only Our Rivers Run Free

Misc. Traditional



 GDG
          When apples still grow in November
 CGD
          When blossoms still bloom from each tree
 CG
          When leaves are still green in December
 DBmEm
          It's then that our land will be free
 CG
          I wander her hills and her valleys
 CD
          And still through my sorrow I see
 CG
          A land that has never know freedom
 DBmEm
          And only her rivers run free
I drink to the death of her manhood
Those men who'd rather have died
Than to live in the cold chains of bondage
To bring back thier rights were denied
Oh where are you now that we need you
What burns where the flame used to be
Are ye gone like the snows of last winter
And will only our ivers run free
How sweet is life but we're crying
How mellow the wine but we're dry
How fragrant the rose but it's dying
How gentle the wind but it sighs
What good is in youth when it's aging
What joy is in eyes that can't see
When there's sorrow in sunshine and laughter
And still only our rivers run free
