Under Your Tree

Intro:

A  B | C#m  B | A  B | C#m    |

C#m
The leaves they fall
            A     E/G#        F#m
upon the day that makes a memory
those pleading eyes,
              E   B/D#
echoing, silently in me

C#m
the final nights
                 A  E/G#         F#m
I guard her sleep, I can do without
the fear's down deep
                E            B/D#
There's nothing good in this morning...

G#                A
        Oh, and I know...
              E          G#m7             C#m
invested feelings in the one I would outlast
A       E             G#m                 C#
My little friend is getting tired, fading fast...

Interlude:

B                  C#            D#m               C#
Did not want to see the signs of the dimming flame
B         C#        G#
I need to have more time

(No, I don't want to let you go)
   B                   C#          D#m            C#
Tonight I fear I'll say goodbye to my little friend
B             C#      G#m
Don't want to let you go...


  the warmest heart I've found
D#m
 I lower into the ground
   B
my tears, forever with you
        F#
resting under your tree

G#m
you have always liked this place
D#m
it now belongs to you...
  B
I need to set you free
    B
and go on alone

Gm            Dm
one day in my feeble timeline
Bm7b5            Bb
You gave me your heart and stole mine
Gm        Dm                Bm7b5
tomorrows came too fast for me
             Bb              Am
to hear your slow, silent goodbye...

Dm
  the kindest heart I've found
Am
  I lowered into the ground
       F
  your smile kept me alive
               C
 back when the skies were still

Dm
  you always liked this place
Am
  now sleep under the tree
    F
  I planted here the day
F
  when you were born

F  G | Am  G | F  G | D  D |
F  G | Am  G | F  G |

F                G               Am          C G
I should've been ready, seen the nearing end
F          G             D
 my little old friend, a child.
     F            G           Am               C G
That day I had to say goodbye and turn the bend
F              G      Am
but I'll never let go
