A
Like mighty oak trees
D A
They line a shaded, well-worn path
D A
They're the souls that have walked beside me
E7
And I can see that, lookin' back
D A
Friends that stood by me
A D E7
Right up to the last
D
Like mighty oak trees
E7 A
They've helped me walk this well worn path
[Verse 2]
A
Down by the waters
D A
Of a stream that never ends
D A Bdim
They sheltered me from the noonday sun and guard me
E7
from the wind
D A
Now I close my eyes and I can see them
C#M Bdim A
All once again
D
Like mighty oak trees
E7 A
Down by that stream that never ends
E7
Strong and always there
D A
When I needed them the most
E7
You know they're rooted
D A
Way down deep in my soul
D E7
Now I think about 'em all the time
A D
When I'm out on the road
A E7
And every night when I lay down I know I'm lookin' up
A
At mighty oak trees
A
Like mighty oak trees
D A
They have stood the test of time
D A
They were always there to lean on
E7
When strength was hard to find
D A
I just hope that one day
You're lucky enough to find
D
mighty oak trees
E7
Mighty oak trees
A
Like those rowdy friends of mine
