The Pine Tree chords by Johnny Cash

THE PINE TREE

A            G      D      A
I lean my back against you thinkin' you were an oak
       G            D         A
I knew the wind could bent you but I can't believe you broke
             G         D   A
Now the wind could never break me only your false love
         G       D   A
Honey I've been true I swear by God above

            G    D         A
I thought you were a willow but you never wept for me
              G       D         A
You went roamin' in the wildwood like a ship that roams the see
           G      D          A
The willow tree is fickle and it weeps in the morning dew
          G                D    A
My love is a pine tree cause that's the only tree that's true

      G      D      A
If I was mistaken then take my eyes away
             G         D       A
You made a bed in the wildwood and that's where I saw you lay
             G         D      A
Honey your eyes deceived you it's true I touched the ground
       G       D           A
But I never slept there I never let my long hair down mhm

         G     D           A
Love is like a thorn bush touch it and you will find
           G           D        A
You'll prick your fingers and leave the sweetest flower behind
G        D        A
Love oh love oh what you done to me
        G         D    A
You set me a driftin' like a ship upon the sea

    G         D           A
Yes a ship there is I see you and you belong to me
         G        D     A
My love is the ocean and deeper love cannot be
              G         D    A
Yeah well I guess I was mistaken and woman I want you back
      G                 D    A
You never have left my heart now honey baby that's a fact

G              D     A
Come to me pine tree and we will never part
    G              D    A
We'll put our roots down in each other's heart
G              D     A
Come to me pine tree and we will never part
    G              D    A
We'll put our roots down in each other's heart
