    C                 G6
You cut me down a tree 
        
    Fmaj7	       C
And brought it back to me

            G6            Fmaj7
Well that's what made me see

                      C
Where I was going wrong

                   G6
You put me on a shelf

Fmaj7                  C
And kept me for yourself

       G6             Fmaj7
I can only blame myself

                    C
You can only blame me

Chorus:

    F6         	       C
And I could write a song

     Am	           G6
A hundred miles long

      Fmaj7               C
Well, that's where I belong

                   G6
And you belong to me


   F6                   C
And I could write it down

    Am                G6
Or spread it all around

   Fmaj7                  C
Get lost and then get found

                      G6
Or swallowed in the sea

Verse 2:

    C              G6
You put me on a line

      F6             C
And hung me out to dry

   G6                   Fmaj7
And darling that's when I

                  C
Decide to go to see

                     G6
You cut me down to size

       F            C
And opened up my eyes

 G6           Fmaj7
Made me realize

                   C
What I could not see

Chorus:

    F                 C
And I could write a book

      Am                    G6
The one they'll say that shook

        Fmaj7             C
The world, and then it took

                   G6
took it back from me

     F                  C
And I could write it down

   Am                G6
Or spread it all around

   Fmaj7                  C
Get lost and then get found

                         G6
And you'll come back to me

      Fmaj7               C
Not swallowed in the sea

                     G6
And you belong with me

            F            C
Ah what good is it to live

       Am               G6
With nothing left to give

     Fmaj7           C
Forget but not forgive

                    G6
Not loving all you see

               F                C
Ah the streets you're walking on

     Am              G6
A thousand houses long

     Fmaj7               C
Well that's where I belong

                     G6
And you belong with me

Not swallowed in the sea

Am               G6
You belong with me

      F6               C
Not swallowed in the sea

     Am                G6
Yeah, you belong with me

       F6              C
Not swallowed in the sea
