There are a few tabs of the Peter, Paul, and Mary version of this song,
which is somewhat different than the original. So this is my attempt to
write out the chords from Pete Seeger's version, based on a live recording
from The Essential Pete Seeger (the studio version is played on banjo). 
Feel free to comment with suggested corrections, as I know it isn't exactly 
correct.
