Rufus McGarrigle Wainwright (born 22 July 1973) is a Canadian-American singer and songwriter.
Wainwright was born in Rhinebeck, New York, USA, to folk singers Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle (they divorced while he was a child). He began to play the piano at age six, and by age thirteen he was touring with his sister Martha Wainwright, mother Kate, and aunt Anna as the McGarrigle Sisters and Family.

____________________ / Rufus Wainwright / I think this song is very hard to interpret as well / Peach Trees / as many other of his songs, but check out the website / Want Two / songmeanings.net, which always has a good input: /___________________/ www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/3530822107858517823/
These chords are the way Rufus plays the song live. It's impossible to transcribe from the album-version, and these work perfectly fine as well. -When the same chord appears in a new shape, play the new one then and on. -The symbol % means to just stay on the chord.
