[Verse 1]
Em Am Em Am E F C Am
Grown by the sun, nurtured by rain, upon this world, they must remain
Em Am Em Am E F C Am
our oldest friends, the forest was our home, Now we burn them down to build our homes
[Chorus]
G Gm F G F
Trees, beautiful trees, they chop them down with such ease
F G Gm C Am
they don't want to become fields of green they just want to be
[Middle 8]
Gbm Dbm Gbm Dbm Gbm Dbm Em Am
Trees, should be blowing in the breeze, trees should be blowing in the breeze
[Verse 2]
Em AM Em Am E F C Am
Home to the birds, shelter to the forest floor, their roots hold the world they adore
Em Am Em Am E F C Am
each ring reveals the passing of their years and raindrops on leaves resemble falling tears
[Chorus]
G Gm F G F
Trees, beautiful trees, they chop them down with such ease
F G Gm C Am
they don't want to become fields of green they just want to be
[Middle 8]
Gbm Dbm Gbm Dbm Gbm Dbm Em
Trees, should be blowing in the breeze, trees should be blowing in the breeze
