Chorus:
         E                       B                      F#                 G#m    F#
Well, if I had a lover, couldnʼt keep it undercover and fall for her like leaves.
       E                   B                         F#
And if I had a dollar, Iʼd save the whole holler and buy that girl a ring
           E                  B                 F#             G#m
Well, ever since I donʼt have any, Iʼm about as lonely as can be
F#      E                 B                      F#              B
But if I had a lover and I had a dollar, what a happy hobo Iʼd be

E B F# G#m F#
E F# B

Verse:
B                         E                      B
 Thatʼs all I want, but I know itʼs not meant to be
       B                        F#
But Iʼm jealous how the wind is free
B                              E       B
ʼCause Iʼm all locked up in my own misery
    B          F#         B
With nobody to blame but me

Chorus:
         E                       B                      F#                 G#m    F#

Verse:
B                            E               B
 And thereʼs a girl, but she pays no mind to me
      B                                   F#
Yeah, somethinʼ like the rocks beneath my feet
B                                   E              B
 And I hear them say, Iʼm missinʼ a forest for the tree
            B                   F#                   B
But I donʼt care when sheʼs the prettiest tree Iʼve seen
