Hi Peter,
Believe it or not, I've found the song 'In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree', in a very old book of music I have in my possession.
The book is at least 80yrs old, with a foreword by Charles Coburn, and an appreciation from George Robey. - Unfortunately, because of it's age, the book doesn't show the music with chords. - But, if your still interested, and don't get any joy from elsewhere, by all means let me know, - colin.leaney@homecall.co.uk -and I'll write the chords in anyway. -- In any event, you have my best wishes for a very happy Christmas. -- Colin
