[Intro]
Em G Am G D
[Verse 1]
Em G All the leaves on the Giving Tree have fallen Am G D No shade to crawl in underneath Em I've got scars from a pocket knife G Am Em D Where you carved your heart into me
[Chorus]
C G If all you wanted was love D Bm7 G Why would you use me up C D G G7 Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away C G B Em When all I wanted to be was your giving tree Em7 C D G Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
[Verse 2]
Em G I lie in the dead of night and I wonder Am G D Whose covers you're between Em And it's sad laying in his bed G Am G D You feel hollow, so you crawl home back to me
[Chorus]
C G If all you wanted was love D Bm7 G Why would you use me up C D G G7 Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away C G B Em When all I wanted to be was your giving tree Em7 C D G Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
[Bridge]
Am Well, I see a trail that starts C G A line of broken hearts behind you D That lead you back to me Am The once sad and lonely fool C D D4 D With nothing left but roots to show, oh oh
[Chorus]
C G If all you wanted was love D Bm7 G Why would you use me up C D G G7 Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away C G B Em When all I wanted to be was your giving tree Em7 C D G Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
[Outro]
C D G Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
