Verse 1 A We scratched our names in that oak tree 'cause I loved you and you loved me DG A jagged little heart so the whole town knew it DGA Carved in the bark with an arrow through it ED7 I came out here to see it one more time
Chorus ADG And I got my chainsaw oh you know it's got to go ADG It's such a shame y'all, I ain't gonna be happy ACDFA 'Til those names fall and I'm sittin' on a stump
A7(riff) N.C. Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet A Holdin' a chainsaw
Verse 2 A I guess all those years, they don't mean a thing
Now I can't wait to count those rings DG Nothing left of us but dust and splinters DGA A big pile of wood to keep me warm through the winter ED7 'Cause I, I don't have you
Chorus ADG And I got my chainsaw oh you know it's got to go ADG It's such a shame y'all, I ain't gonna be happy ACDFA 'Til those names fall and I'm sittin' on a stump
A7(riff) N.C. Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet DCA Holdin' a chainsaw, whoa, yeah, 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 E7 But forever's goin' down tonight
Chorus ADG And I got my chainsaw oh you know it's got to go ADG It's such a shame y'all, I ain't gonna be happy ACDFA 'Til those names fall and I'm sittin' on a stump
A7(riff) Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet N.C. Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet A Holdin' a chainsaw, chain-chain-chainsaw, woo
