Where The Willow Tree Died

Foreign Fields


Tom: Em

          Em         G               Am                Em
Up on the limb I had more to see but I can't feel your hand
    B                 Em
And I can't extend my reach

[Verse 2]

         Em             G               Am                Em
I yelled down to you to climb the tree instead without my help
      B               Em
And you said back, "I tried"


[Verse 3]

         Em             G                         Am             Em
Now I am looking at the branch where I stand it's giving out, oh my
        B              Em
Can you hear my lonely cry


[Verse 4]

             Em                G              Am             Em
I could have saved a seed for you to grow and us to reap all night
          B           Em
Where the willow tree died


[Bridge]

         Em              G
Well you always play the games
Am                    Em              B                Em
Looks like you're off again, but your branches always break
        Em              G
When on solid ground we stand
     Am                  Em       B                      Em
You lean down and lend a hand and everything goes as you planned
