D G A A*  X2

D
The first new tree is tall and good
G             A    A* 
It gives hard dark brown burning wood

When winter comes it stands right outside
G        A             A*
With its blossom-laden arms spread wide

D G A A* X2

D
The second new tree gives out sweet sticky fruit
G                   A   A*
And it took a long time to take root
D
Sometimes we thought it had given up the spirit
G                         A             A*
But now it makes me happy when I'm just standing near it

D G X2

D
The third new tree stands just west of the barn
G
His best branches grow thicker than my arm
D
I will water him every day
G
And I will chase all the termites away

        D          G    D     G
But the fourth new tree is my enemy
          D          A     D
Yeah, the fourth new tree shouldn't be here
    D          G
The fourth new tree
           D                                  G
Sets its tendrils through the water mains and tries to poison me

D
His leaves are thick
A
Always falling
D
and pure

D G A A* X4
