Gene Parsons I Must Be A Tree by Gene Parsons/Gib Guilbeau
Clarence White guitar
[E]You are nothing but a piece of [F#]driftwood
But [A]I can feel the [B]pain and mis[E]ery
And in this rut I'm stuck with roots a-[F#]pining
But [A]I'm not a man so [B]I must be a t[E]ree
[E]I can't be real, yes I must be a tree
I [F#m]bloom my spring then [B]comes the fall that [E]withers me
[E]And through this cold I'm dormant 'til you call on me
That's[F#m] why I know that [D]I must be a [E]tree
[E]Every month you mate our need gets [F#]bigger
My [A]heart has hardened l[B]ike a knot of [E]wood
[E]And things won't be so shady for you [F#]anymore
Somed[A]ay this tree will [B]branch out towards the [E]other wood
[E]I can't be real, no I must be a tree
I [F#m]bloom my spring then [B]comes the fall that [E]withers me
[E]And through this cold I'm dormant 'til you call on me
That's [F#m]why I know that [D]I must be a [E]tree
