 Chords by Felix Oelmann
 A great song from 1984!
 [And not too difficult to play as well]
 Note: In the 2nd chorus all chords are tuned one step up.
 I don't know if my version is entirely correct, but it sounds
 right to me..

 Chorus:
 [E]Near a [F#m]tree by a [E]river is a [A]hole in the [B]ground,
