A5          D5              E5             A5
  Been away  from you for much too long
      D5               E5                  A5
Been away but now I'm back where I belong
  D5                  E5
Believed while I was gone away
         A5  E5        D5 A5
That I'd do just fine
      D5                  E5           A5
But I couldn't get the mu-sic off my mind
      D5                  E5              A5
And I couldn't leave the needing you be-hind.

         G5             D5       G5   D5
Free the word from the page.
             G5          D5      G5   D5
Free the bird  from the cage.
        G5             D5                A5       D5
Just go out there and face what you did  before,
           G5            D5             E5
Did it once,  you can do  it once more.

Yeah
           A5  D5      E5            D5         A5     D5
Comin' back      for one more bite of the ap-ple.
E5  D5          A5
     Taste is sweet.
         D5         A5
It's the nectar of life,
        D5              A5
And you know that it's right
           D5               A5              E5
'Cause you know you're not out there alone.
             A5    D5      E5              D5
    And that one  more   bite of the ap - ple
      A5        D5          E5     D5
Is all   you're gonna need   to bring it home.

( A5   D5   A5   D5   A5   D5 )
 
A5              D5                 E5               A5
    I couldn't count the chances that I've lost
         D5                    E5             A5
Couldn't count the chanc - es   or the cost.
      D5                        E5             A5   E5    D5
But I can't help thinkin' 'bout  the days of way back when,
A5     D5                  E5                A5
And I know I wanna taste   them once again.
      D5            E5                    A5   D5
Yes I know I wanna taste them once again.

         G5             D5       G5   D5
Got some things to be said.
            G5          D5      G5   D5
Goin' 'round   in my   head.
        G5             D5
Time to get out of bed
                A5         D5
'Cause I've slept too long,
          G5                D5         E5
And I know  there's a place  I belong

Yeah

           A5  D5      E5            D5         A5     D5
Comin' back      for one more bite of the ap-ple.
E5  D5          A5
     Taste is sweet.
         D5         A5
It's the nectar of life,
        D5              A5
And you know that it's right
           D5               A5              E5
'Cause you know you're not out there alone.
             A5    D5      E5              D5
    And that one  more   bite of the ap - ple
      A5        D5          E5     D5
Is all   you're gonna need   to bring it home.

( A5   D5   A5   D5   A5   D5 )

A5         D5                 E5           A5
    Was a time that I  won't ever forget.
          D5                 E5           A5
They were times that I will never regret.
          D5                        E5           A5   E5    D5
I've been thinkin' 'bout those days      since way back then,
A5     D5                     E5                A5
And   thinkin' I could bring  them back again.
     D5                  E5                A5   D5
Just maybe I could bring  them back again.

         G5            D5       G5   D5
One more dance in the night
              G5           D5      G5   D5
One more chance to get it right
         G5           D5                     A5       D5
One more grab at the brass ring that's fly - ing by
              G5          D5           E5
One more toast to the mud in your eye.

Yeah
           A5  D5      E5            D5         A5     D5
Comin' back      for one more bite of the ap-ple.
E5  D5          A5
     Taste is sweet.
         D5         A5
It's the nectar of life,
        D5              A5
And you know that it's right
           D5               A5              E5
'Cause you know you're not out there alone.
            A5   D5
I'll be back
   E5              D5             A5      D5
Be sittin' up high on the sad - dle.
E5   D5          A5
     All I want
      D5           A5
Is to do it once  more.
       D5                A5
Let me get through that door
         D5             A5               E5
'Cause I still do be - lieve that I can.
                A5       D5      E5              D5
      Want that one    more    bite of the ap - ple
        A5          D5          E5     D5          A5
And just  the chance to taste it     once again.

A5   D5   A5   D5   A5   D5

A5               D5            E5          A5
    Been a-round the world a time or two.
             D5                E5                   A5
   Everywhere I've been I've thought of me and you.
          D5              E5             A5    E5     D5  A5
I was hop - in' you'd re-member how it used to be
    D5                 E5                A5
And may-be that you'd still remember me,
         D5              E5                     A5
And that ap-ple just as sweet as it could be.
              D5               E5                 A5       D5
  Reach right up and pick one off of that apple tree.
