Fig Tree Chords

   
Brett fingerpicks the song when he plays it, for the most part you should fingerpick the
two notes of a chord then play the rest of the chord together, but this doesn't go for
whole song so mess around with it until you find a way that sounds good to you. These 
should be about right, not sure if they're 100% accurate but they're pretty close.
is a great song, so have fun with it!

Over the meadow, down by the stream

The shade of a fig tree

Oh the sunlight streaks across the meadow

Comes speaking through the canopy
    Em7     D           B           C
The shadow suggests the shape of my interests
G        D     G
Under your fig leaf

So won't you come along

   Em7          G
Underneath the shade
   Em7         G
The shade of a fig tree
