# Enjoy playing this on guitar, but I think the original song
# is on a ukulele. If you want to try it on the uke, here's 
# how to do the chord shapes I think R. Hunter plays on it:
# 
#     A5   A5 D5   E5     D5  A5
# A | --0-----4-----4-----2-----2-----2-- | 
# E | --0-----4-----2-----4-----2-----0-- | 
# C | --4-----4-----2-----4-----2-----4-- | 
# G | --6-----6-----2-----4-----2-----6-- | 


A5   A5       D5         E5
You told me the rain would be coming
A5        A5      D5        E5
Down, so I stayed inside with my bottle
  A5                     A5
I heard what you said, I always hear
             D5            E5
I just don't learn so good, I know I should listen more
A5         A5 D5  E5
Carefully, more carefully

D5           E5               A5      A5
You said our love was like a bonsai tree
D5     E5                A5     A5
And of course, you were right
D5              E5               A5    A5
Oh, that's why, darling, it's a tragedy
   E5                              D5
To find me drawing bonsai trees tonight

A5                  A5                    D5   E5
Oh how the light reflected off you when you came to me
   A5            A5  D5          E5
Ya floated like Mary into my darkened room
        A5                      A5       D5           E5
We were there once things were fine, I was yours, you were mine
          A5           A5       D5          E5
We had it all, it was ours, oh my god, below the stars

             D5          E5              A5      A5
And then you told me our love is like a bonsai tree
D5    E5             A5     A5
And I knew you were right
D5              E5               A5    A5
Oh, that's why, darling, it's a tragedy
   E5                              D5
To find me drawing bonsai trees tonight
