If I Were A Tree Chords

   
Standard Tuning
Capo 3 

There's a part that I'm not sure of, but I'll fix it when I can.
The Gm sounds good only sometimes, so use it as a G if you please. 


Intro: G

 G
If I were a tree I'd shake you off,
   C
Who needs all those dying leaves?
  G
I'd follow my roots to the underground,
    C
Drink wine with all the thieves.

G

 G
If I were a tree I'd give you wood,
      C
Make you a dendrophiliac.
    G
I'd have a laugh because I could;
        C
Oh, my knots and twists are not for that.

In the winter when my limbs are so bare

If I were a tree I would age so the well;

I'd watch the years paint on your face.

Watch you disappear without a trace...trace.
