Tree Of Hearts
performed by Bryan White on the album "The Right Place"
written by Skip Ewing and Don Sampson
G C
On a tree inside a heart
D G
A dull boy scout knife took half a day to carve
G C
Michael loves Caroline
D G
He'd just turned ten and she was nine
G C
The summer she turned sweet sixteen
D G
He finally found his nerve and took her out to see
G C
And what she saw through her tears
D G
Was seven hearts for seven years
C G D G
And they stood beneath the tree of hearts
C G D
And they watched their feelings grow
C G D G
And they swore they'd never be apart
Em C D
True love left its mark
C D G
On the tree of hearts
G C
The tenth time he carved their names
D G
Caroline's dad was giving her away
G C
There beneath the shelter of
D G
The tree of hearts they pledged their love
C G
And then four hearts down the road
C Em D
They brought the first of two born home
C G D G
And they played beneath the tree of hearts
C G D
And they watched their children grow
C G D G
Where they swore they'd never be apart
Em C D
True love left its mark
C D G
On the tree of hearts
C Em D
In the blinking of an eye
C D
Somehow fifty-seven hearts flew by
G C
Fifty-eight, fifty-nine
D G
Sixty, he missed Caroline
G C
Sixty-one, Michael knew
D G
There wouldn't be a sixty-two
C G D G
Now they lay beneath the tree of hearts
C G D
You can watch their love still grow
C G D G
Where they swore they'd never be apart
Em C D
True love left its mark
C D G
On my tree of hearts
Note that the rhythm in this song is kind of odd, so you're usually
switching chords in a place that looks funny on paper. You should
definitely listen to the song to get a handle on the rhythm before you
try anything. I don't know if this is the same key as Bryan sings it
in, because I put chords to it in a key that my voice can handle, but as
transcribed it sounds all right. If you have any corrections, feel free
to e-mail me.
