Key: Eb5
Time: 4/4, then 6/8

(Note: The timing may seem weird in the beginning because the accents 

aren't always on the first beats of the measures, and they start the 

song with a one-beat pickup.)

I swung beneath the battered trees
     F#5                  B5   B5
The sunlight kissed and greeted me
   Eb5           Eb5                B5
It broke right through the clouded skies above
  F#5                     B5   B5
Adorned the trees with shining love and

Veils of doubt and shadows fled my eyes


(switch to 6/8)


    Eb5
The saddest looking trees
                                            Bb5
Broken and bruised in the fateful october's storm
                  Ab5
Stripped of their majesty
     Eb5
The storm came in the night
                                                    Bb5
It crippled this town, unannounced and unmercifully bawling
             Ab5
tears of wet snow


            B5             F#5       C#5
Though the trees cried through the night
          Eb5    C#5         B5
There was none to cure their plight
        B5            F#5    C#5
And it seemed their better days
        Eb5       C#5   B5
Would behind them , ever stay.


C#5      F#5    Bb5    Bb5    Eb5
Oh, Oh, Ohhh


Eb5
On that clouded day
                                                   Bb5
Years had since passed since the fury of october's storm
                      Ab5
When I found that old swing
           Eb5
They were standing high above
                                                      Bb5
The sunlight came down and revealed to my eyes such a wonder
                        Ab5
They were bursting with life


Eb5                    Eb5
Whoah No matter what storms you've seen
               Bb5
No matter the broken dreams
                  Ab5
you've yet to see mend
                  Eb5
Consider the the battered trees
                    Eb5
Their leaves dancing in the breeze
              Bb5                  Ab5 - Bb5
Recalling no memory of octobers's storm


            B5             F#5       C#5
Though the trees cried through the night
          Eb5    C#5         B5
There was none to cure their plight
        B5            F#5    C#5
And it seemed their better days
        Eb5       C#5   B5
Would behind them , ever stay.
