Hickory, oak, pine and weed
|n/c
Bury my heart underneath these trees
|n/c |
And when a southern wind comes to raise my soul
|n/c |
Spread my spirit like a flock of crows
|n/c
'Cause I loved ya for too-ah long
|n/c |n/c | x . x . |
I loved ya for too-ah long, I loved ya for too-ah long
|F#m |F#m |
All hail the raging fire, . . come and light my eyes
|F#m |F#m |
Summer's kiss through electric wire, . . but I'll never die
| F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m |
|F#m |
Sycamore, ash, moss and gnome
|F#m |
Wrap your roots all around my bones
|F#m |
And when they come for me, when they call my name
|F#m
Cast my shadow from a bellow's flame
|F#m E
'Cause I loved ya for too-ah long
|C#m F#m |F#m E |
I loved ya for too-ah long, I loved ya for too-ah long
|E |

Summer's kiss through electric wire, . . but I'll never die

(My chord charts represent how, as a rhythm guitarist, I choose to
play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. I believe chord
charts are interpretations. They differ from tabs, which are intended
to allow players to precisely replicate the way songs were played on
recordings.)
