Intro:

The first new tree is tall and good

With its blossom-laden arms spread 
wide

D
Sometimes we thought it had given up
 the spirit
G                         A      
But now it makes me happy when 
       A*
I'm just standing near it

D G X2

D
The third new tree stands just west 
of the barn
G
His best branches grow thicker than 
my arm
D
I will water him every day
G
And I will chase all the termites 
away

        D          G    D     G
But the fourth new tree is my enemy
          D          A     D
Yeah, the fourth new tree shouldn't 
be here
    D          G
The fourth new tree
           D                       
Sets its tendrils through the water
           G
 mains and tries to poison me

His leaves are thick
A
Always falling
D
and pure
