Verse:
A We scratched our names in that oak tree
A 'Cause I loved you and you loved me
D A jagged little heart so the whole town knew it
DA Carved in the bark with an arrow through it
ED I came out here to see it one more time
Chorus:
A And I got my chainsaw
DGA Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all
DGACDF But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
A And I'm sittin' on a stump
A Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
A Holdin' a chainsaw
Verse:
A I guess all those years, they don't mean a thing
A Now I can't wait, to count those rings
D Nothing left of us but dust and splinters
DA A big pile of wood to keep me warm through the wint-er-er
ED 'Cause I, I don't have you
Chorus:
A But I got my chainsaw
DGA Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all
DGACDF But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
A And I'm sittin' on a stump
A Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
DCA Holdin' a chainsaw
DC Just a lil' ol' chainsaw
Bridge:
AD I remember what you said that night
AD That you would love me for the rest of your life
AD We wrote forever with a pocketknife
E But forever's goin' down tonight
Chorus:
A Cause I got my chainsaw
DGA It's got to go, it's such a shame doll
DGACDF But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
A And I'm sittin' on a stump
A Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
A Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
A Holdin' a chainsaw, chain-chain-chainsaw, wooh, dananananah na na-a-ah, danananana
na ah
A Yadadadada na na-a-nah, Yadadada da da.
