Tonart: B major•
Verse 1
B
Two trees in the forest
One was crooked, one was straight
G#m
Crimson bark and emerald needles
Growing day by day
E
And though they looked so different
They enjoyed the rain the same
A chickadee had told them
Of a darkness on the land
G#m
Spinning blades that came to visit
Carried by a man
E
And every other tree would see them
Cut down where they stand
G#m
Oh, can't you see?
E
B
A crooked tree won't fit into
G#m
E
They're left to grow wild and free

Oh, I'd rather be a crooked

B
The perfect trees were driven
Down the mountain to the mill
G#m
They turned them into toothpicks
And twenty dollar bills
E
It seemed the more the people took
The more they needed still
The crooked trees were left there
After all the work was done
G#m
Now they go for weeks
B
And never witness anyone
E
No one left to tell them if they're
Growing right or wrong
B
But the whispering wind
G#m
Oh, can't you see?

B
People say I'm different
F#
My way of life seems strange
G#m
I took the road less traveled
Twists and turns along the way
E
But like the crooked tree
I'm growing stronger day by day
A river never wonders
Why it flows around the bend
G#m
A mountain doesn't question
How it rose up from the land
B
E
So who am I to wish
I wasn't just the way I am

Oh, can't you see?
