(Words and music by Phil Ochs, 1964; Arrangements by John Denver, 1966)
Notes: This is a Phil Ochs cover, but John made some arrangements that made his rendition somewhat different from Phil's original recording. The most significant change is in the second verse. Instead of "[C]You can see it if you [D]try", John sang "[C]You can see it if you [A]try" and thus lifting the entire third verse by seven half-steps. Marvelous arrangement, but hard to sing!
