        C                    
Oh, the Lord is good to me.  
    C                    
And so I thank the Lord  
    F      C      F        C      
For giving me the things I need:  
    F        C            F    C      
The sun, the rain and the appleseed;  
                F    G  C    
Oh, the Lord is good to me.  
   
        C                 
Oh, and every seed I sow  
     C                  
Will grow into a tree.  
    F       C           F      C      
And someday there'll be apples there  
    F        C            F  C       
For everyone in the world to share.  
                F    G  C    
Oh, the Lord is good to me.

    F                                    
Oh, here I am 'neath the blue, blue sky  
C     F    C        
Doing as I please.  
G                                  
Singing with my feathered friends  
        C        G      
Humming with the bees.  
   
  C                   
I wake up every day,  
   C                 
As happy as can be,  
  F       C         F        C     
Because I know that with His care  
   F     C                F        C       
My apple trees, they will still be there.  
            F    G  C    
The Lord is good to me.
