You cut me down a tree
E B
And brought it back to me
C#m F#
And thatʼs what made me see

I can only blame myself
E B
You can only blame me

And I could write a song
C#m F#
A hundred miles long
E B
Well, thatʼs where I belong
C#m F#
And you belong to me

And I could write it down
C#m F#
Or spread it all around

Get lost and then get found
C#m F# B
Or swallowed in the sea
Verse:
B F#
You put me on a line
E B
And hung me out to dry
C#m F#
And darling thatʼs when I

Decided to go to see you

You cut me down to size
E B
And opened up my eyes
C#m F#
Made me realize
E B
What I could not see
Chorus:
E B
And I could write a book
C#m F#
The one theyʼll say that shook
E B
The world, and then it took
C#m F#
It took it back from me
E B
And I could write it down
C#m F#
Or spread it all around

Get lost and then get found
C#m F#
And youʼll come back to me
E B
Not swallowed in the sea
C#m E B F# x4
