Evergreen

[First Part]

  A         D           E        F#m
I kissed my penny and I threw it in
  A          D       E
I prayed I'd keep my soul
     A           D               
Went down to the river where the 
E     F#m
water bends
A                D         E
The only place I know

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm7   F#m7
Oh, I can't see
    D
The forest
        A
For the trees

[Chorus]

            A    A/C# D
So will you wait for me?
         A    A/C# D
Will you wait for me?
         A    A/C# D
Will you wait for me?
             A     E/G#    E/C#    D
My evergreen

A        D      E       F#m
Standing at the water's edge
A        D      E
The Mississippi's overflowing
A         D       E     F#m
Hold your current in my hands
A             D             E
You bring the meaning to my moments

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm7   F#m7
Oh, I can't see
    D
The forest
        A
For the trees

[Chorus]

            A    A/C# D
So will you wait for me?
         A    A/C# D
Will you wait for me?
         A    A/C# D
Will you wait for me?
             A     E/G#    E/C#    D
My evergreen

[Bridge]

Bm7   F#m7
Oh, I can't see
    D
The forest
        A
For the trees
Bm7   F#m7
Oh, I feel so
D                    A
Hopeless against the stream

[Chorus]

            A    A/C# D
So will you wait for me?
     E   F#m
My evergreen
            A   A/C#  Bm7     E7M
I know it's just as hard in Heaven
            A    A/C# D
So will you wait for me?
     E (F) F#m
My evergreen
            A    A/C#  Bm7    E7M
I know it's just as hard in Heaven
             A     E/G#    E/C#    D
My evergreen
             A     E/G#    E/C#    D
Evergreen
             A     E/G#    E/C#    D
