My Very Own Apple Pie

Chorus:

G         C    G     "It's delicious.           It's delicious.                 It's sweet and warm and mine.

G         D    G     It's delicious.              It's delicious.                 My very own apple pie."

 

C        D             My baby makes the best apple pie.                I really am the luckiest guy.

G        C             She picks the plumpest fruit she finds  and kneads the dough and cloves she grinds,

D                        then bakes it all,         oh, so right.     

 

{chorus}

                          

C        D             She put one on the window sill                       to cool it, but someone did steal.

G        C             I followed the footsteps and thought I'd kill.  It's hard to believe to this day still.

D                        My baby grinnin'        from her fill say's,

 

{chorus}

 

C        D             I bought some ripe fruit to make a pie.            So I would be the happiest guy.

G        C             I slaved all day,          until I    was                  tired, so I shut my eyes

D                        and was woken         by my baby's cry,

 

{chorus}

 

C        D             My baby made her way toward me                and said, "I saved you a piece.

G        C             and also put on some ice cream."                   and fed me like it was a dream

D                        but wouldn't wake     when I screamed,

 

{chorus}
