[Intro]
Em (pickie 3rd) G Am G Bm7
[Strophe]
Em                                     G 
All the leaves on the Giving Tree have fallen 
            D*       G        Bm7 
No shade to crawl in underneath 
Em 
I've got scars from a pocket knife 
      G               Am         G    D 
Where you carved your heart into me
[Refrain]
           C          G 
If all you wanted was love 
              D      G 
Why would you use me up 
       C     D                      G    G7 
Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away 
           C         G      B           Em 
When all I wanted to be was your giving tree 
Em7    C             D                  G 
Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
[Strophe]
Em                               G 
I lie in the dead of night and I wonder 
      D*             G      Bm7 
Whose covers you're between 
Em 
And it's sad laying in his bed 
         G              Am                  G    D 
You feel hollow, so you crawl home back to me
[Refrain]
           C          G 
If all you wanted was love 
              D      G 
Why would you use me up 
       C     D                      G        G7 
Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away 
           C         G      B           Em 
When all I wanted to be was your giving tree 
Em7    C             D                  G 
Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
[Pont]
Am 
Well, I see a trail that starts 
C                         G 
A line of broken hearts behind you 
              D 
That lead you back to me 
Am 
The once sad and lonely fool 
C                              D     Dsus4 D 
With nothing left but roots to show, oh oh
[Refrain]
           C          G 
If all you wanted was love 
              D      G 
Why would you use me up  
       C     D                      G     G7 
Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away 
           C         G      B           Em 
When all I wanted to be was your giving tree 
Em7    C             D                  G 
Settle down, build a home, and make you happy? 
       C             D                  G 
Settle down, build a home, and make you happy?
