Judy Collins - Cactus Tree
CAPO: 5th Fret
[Intro]
C G C
[Verse 1]
F
There's a man who's been out sailing in a decade full of dreams
C F
And he takes her to a schooner and he treats her like a queen
C F C F
Bearing beads from California with their amber stones and green
C F C
He has called her from the harbour, he has kissed her with his freedom
F C F G
He has heard her off to starboard, in the breaking and the breathing
C F C
Of the water weeds, and she was busy being free
[Verse 2]
F
There's a man who's climbed a mountain and he's calling out her name
C F
And he hopes her heart can hear three thousand miles, he calls again
C F C F
He can think her there beside him, he can miss her just the same
C F C
He has missed her in the forest while he showed her all the flowers
F C F G
And the branches sang the chorus as he climbed the scaly towers
C F C
Of a forest tree, while she was somewhere being free
[Verse 3]
F
There's a man who's sent a letter and he's waiting for reply
C F
He has asked her of her travels, since the day they said goodbye
C F C F
He writes, "Wish you were beside me, we can make it if we try"
C F C
He has seen her at the office, with her name on all his papers
F C F G
Through the sharing of the profits, he will find it hard to shake her
C F C
From his memory, and she's so busy being free
[Verse 4]
F
There's a lady in the city and she thinks she loves them all
C F
There's the one who's thinking of her, there's the one who sometimes calls
C F C F
There's the one who writes her letters with his facts and figures scrawl
C F C
She has brought them to her senses, they have laughed inside her laughter
F C F G
Now she rallies her defences, for she fears that one will ask her
C F C
For eternity, and she's so busy being free
[Verse 5]
F
There's a man who sends her medals, he is bleeding from the war
C F
There's a jouster and a jester and a man who owns a store
C F C F
There's a drummer and a dreamer, and you know there may be more
C F C
She will love them when she sees them, they will lose her if they follow
F C F G
And she only means to please them and her heart is full and hollow
C F C
Like a cactus tree, while she's so busy being free
C F C
Like a cactus tree, being free
