NOTE: * This song is played in a 3/3 time signature.
NOTE: * There were some complications on knowing where the capo goes. I started tabbing the song
on 1st fret, which sounded like the original. Then I read in a post by Kingbastard that
it goes on 2nd and then later even saying it's the 3rd fret. I found no chords but after
paying attention to some of the finger picking I knew it would have to be the latter.
NOTE: * None of the chords or tabs I'm using are official.

[Verse]
C Em Am G7
I am a tree waiting to be chopped
C Em Am G7
down to the ground. If I fall do I make a
C Em Am G7
sound, if no one's around?
[Whistle]

[Verse]
C Em Am G7
I am a tree waiting to be
C Em Am G7
chopped into pieces and fed to the machine, with
C Em Am G7
paper-thin skin all tied up in knots
C Em Am G7
I'll try to fight but my bark is worse than my
C
bite...
[Chorus]
C Am
And everything's changing, it's
C Am
true. I used to stand tall with
F G7*
you. But those days are gone...
[Whistle]
