Old Birch Tree Marcus Foster
(Strum all chords once)
I will tel[A]l all the crooked worms in my grave
To save the eyes, sa[E/B]ve the eyes[A]
And I will cover[A] all the winding paths on which you pave
Fallen skies[E/B], fallen skies[A]
And if I tie [D]up my troubles to [A]the old birch tree[A] [G#m] [F#m]
And if I don't [D]chop it down, don't[E/B] chop it down[A]
(Now strum chords normally)
And I will throw al[A]l the stones in the shore at the restless sea
Till it's dr[E/B]y, till it's dry[A]
And I will let al[A]l the hundred faces in the street
Pass me by, p[E/B]ass me by[A]
And if you wanna sell away you[D]r sorrows[A]
Then save [A]some f[G#m]or me[F#m]
I will keep them from growing in the ground[E/B]
And if I tie u[D]p my troubles to [A]the old birch tree[A] [G#m] [F#m]
And if I don't [D]chop it down, don'[E/B]t chop it down[A]
(Marcus freestyles here, and the chords are:

And if you wanna sell away you[D]r sorrows[A]
Then save [A]some f[G#m]or me[F#m]
I will keep them from growing in the ground[E/B]
And if I tie u[D]p my troubles to [A]the old birch tree[A] [G#m] [F#m]
And if I don't [D]chop it down, don'[E/B]t chop it down[A]
D A A G#m F#m -- hold
And if I tie up my troubles to the old birch tree
And if I don't [D]chop it down, don[E/B]'t chop it down[A]
