Lyrics:
Standing h[Dm]ere
The old man said to me
"Long before these crowded [Am]streets
Here stood my dreaming tree"
Below it he would [Dm]sit
For hours at a time
Now progress takes [Am]away
What forever took to find
Now he's falling h[Dm]ard
He feels the falling dark
How he longs to [Am]be
Beneath his dreaming tree
Conquered fear to c[Dm]limb
A moment froze in time
When the girl who first he [Am]kissed
Promised him she'd be his
Remembered mother's [Dm]words
There beneath the tree
"No matter what the [Am]world
You'll always be my baby"
Mommy come q[Dm]uick
The dreaming tree has died
The air is growing[Am] thick
A fear he cannot hide
The dreaming tree has d[Am]ied
Chorus:
[A]Oh have you no [G]pity
This thing I[F] do
I do not d[G]eny it
All through this[A] smile
As crooked as[G] danger
I do not d[F]eny
I know in [D]my mind
I would leave you[A] now
If I had the [G]strength to
I would leave you[F] up
To your own [D]devices
Will you not t[A]alk
Can you take[G] pity
I don't as[F]k much
But won't you s[D]peak pl[A]ease

Intro X 11
(Verse 2)
She knew she had it made
Easy up 'til then
For sure she'd make the grade
Adorers came in hordes
To lay down in her wake
She gave it all she had
But treasures slowly fade
Now she's falling hard
She feels the fall of dark
How did this fall apart
She drinks to fill it up
A smile of sweetest flowers
Wilted so and soured
Black tears stain the cheeks
That once were so admired
She thinks when she was small
There on her father's knee
How he had promised her
''You'll always be my baby"
"Daddy come quick
The dreaming tree has died
I can't find my way home
There is no place to hide
The dreaming tree has died"
Solo 4: 35

I would leave you up

But won't you speak Please......
