                                        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.

G

    C                                   G
Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere I belong
        Gm            F            G
In the winter when my limbs are so bare
    C                                   G
Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere I belong
        Gm            F            G 
In the winter when my limbs are so bare

G

   G
If I were a tree I would age so the well;
    C
I'd watch the years paint on your face.
 G
Follow my roots to the underground,
           C
Watch you disappear without a trace...trace.

G

    C                                   G
Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere I belong,
        Gm            F            G
In the winter when my limbs are so bare.
    C                                   G
Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere I belong,
        Gm            F            G 
In the winter when my limbs are so bare.
        Gm            F            G
In the winter when my limbs are so bare.
        Gm            F            G
In the winter when my limbs are so bare.
