None of them
G D G Am G D
I saw a tree by the riverside one day as I walked along.
G D G Am D G
Straight as an arrow and pointing to the sky, growing tall and strong.
G D Am F C G D
“How did you grow so tall and strong?” I said to the riverside tree.
Refrain
G D Bm G
This is the song that my tree friend sang to me:
G C D G
“I’ve got roots growing down to the water;
G C D G
I’ve got leaves growing up to the sunshine;
C D G Am D
And the fruit that I bear is a sign of the life in me.
G C D G
I am shade from the hot summer sundown;
G C D G
I am nest for the birds of the heaven.
C D G Am D
I’m, becoming what the Lord of trees has meant me to be:
G
A strong, young tree.”
G D G Am G D
I saw a tree in the winter-time when snow lay on the ground.
G D G D G
Straight as an arrow and pointing to the sky,
Am D G
And winter winds blew all around.
G D Am F C G D
“How do you stay so tall and strong?” I said to the winter-time tree.
Refrain
G D G Am G D
I saw a tree in the city streets where buildings blocked the sun:
G D G Am D G
Green and lovely, I could see it gave joy to everyone.
G D Am F C G D
“How do you grow in the city streets?” I said to the downtown tree.
