Roger McGuinn (born James McGuinn III) is most famous for being a founding member, singer, guitarist, and songwriter in The Byrds. Since that band's demise he has had moderate success as a solo artist, working with many other artists, including Bob Dylan and Tom Petty. Some of his solo material has appeared in films, such as 1969's Easy Rider. Roger, along with the other Byrds members, was honored with an induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.

Roger McGuinn The Trees Are All Gone written by Roger MCGuinn Cameila McGuinn
EDAE The glaciers near the polar cap have all begun to melt EDAE Temperatures are on the rise far from the southern belt EDAE Water levels shifting tides on every changing land EDADA Rain forests in the Amazon have vanished from our hand AEAE And the trees are all gone yea you know it's all wrong ADADAEEDAEDA And the trees are all gone EDAE The people want to eat today and so they clear the land EDAE Global warming is a concept they can't understand EDAE But all the politicians now they have no excuse EDADA The just hide behind their power and keep us from the truth AEAE And the trees are all gone yea you know it's all wrong ADADAEED And the trees are all gone BEA Man has tried his suicide with bigotry and hate BEDA But in the end he'll kill himself with nothing but his waste EEDAEDA And the trees are all gone EDAE What will finally happen when the farm lands turn to dust EDAE When only rich receive the food and nothing's left for us EDAE But all the politicians now they have no excuse EDADA The just hide behind their power and keep us from the truth AEAE And the trees are all gone yea you know it's all wrong ADADAEEDAEDAE And the trees are all gone
