You can, Rick. Check out Masato's link to Prairie Home Companion a few posts above.

As I heard the song, in the key of G, the note on "Come..." is G and the note on "...dear..." is F#, "...time..." is E, and " ...near..." is the G an octave lower. (Actually, I usually put the capo on the 2nd fret, so I'm really playing and singing it in A, not G.)
