Am C
All the leaves on the giving tree have fallen
Dm C G
No shade to crawl in underneath
Am C
I've got scars from a pocket knife where you carved
Dm C G
your heart into me
F C G C
If all you wanted was love why would you use me up
F G C C7
cut me down build a boat and sail away
F C E Am
when all i wanted to be was your giving tree
F G C
settle down build a home make you happy
Am C
I lie awake in the dead of night and i wonder
Dm C G
whose covers your between
Am C
you feel sad lying in his bed you feel hallow
Dm C G
so you crawl home back to me
F C G C
if all you wanted was love why would you use me up
F G C C7
cut me down build a boat and sail away
F C E Am
when all i wanted to be was your giving tree
F G C
settle down build a home make you happy
Dm
i see a trail that starts
F C
a line of broken hearts behind you
G
that leads you back to me
Dm F G
one sad and lonely fool with nothing left but roots to show oh oh
F C G C
if all you wanted was love why would you use me up
F G C C7
cut me down build a boat and sail away
F C E Am
when all i wanted to be was your giving tree
F G C
settle down build a home make you happy
F G C
settle down build a home make you happy
