Tonart: A major
Verse 1
E
A
E
A
I will tell a story true,
B
though you may doubt me
E
A
And you may need a little salt to get it down
D
A coastal town improvement
A
They transported to the coast
E
A
Transplanted it within their civic pack.
A
with tough old twisted branches,
E
And skies where stock had rubbed
Well, they cared for it
B
and soon it started blooming
E
But the seeds that fell
A
lay dormant on the ground
D
Oh, the coastal trees and
A
shrubs around ignored it
B
And soon its leaves and branches
A
As it happened in this town
A
by the hardships of a drought
D
And one day as he was strolling
E
A
He saw that tree and gave a joyful shout
So he went there every day
E
And somehow that old tree
D
For it started blooming once again,
B
The seeds that fell at once
A
But the man was out of place,
E
A
He was old and knew no other way of life
D
And his health was failing
A
through the smog pollution
E
And the knowledge of his hard
A
B
E
financial strife
A
D
A
E
A
B
So the bushman died beneath
C#
the tree one evening
F#
B
And it's strange to say within a week or
C#
No matter what was done
B
For the old tree had no
C#
will to go on liv ing,
F#
Like the spirit -broken
E
He'd been brought there
B
by some relatives in kindness
B
the people thought they did their best
But where ringers boiled their quarts
C#
beneath that old tree
F#
B
And tied their bridal reins upon its limbs
E
There were bush -bikes leaned against it
B
And at night time there were parties
C#
F#
with their stubbies and their cans
B
Just the story of a tree
F#
who were taken from their home
E
B
And the moral of it is that very often,
F#
B
E
B
It's well -intended kindness that can kill.
