[VERSE 1:]
                          D
Love and maple syrup go together
                         C                B7
Like the sticky winds of winter when they meet
     Em
When lonely lovers come to rest
      D
Beneath the trees they do their best
    C                   B7      G
But still they can't be free
 
 
[CHORUS:]
                D            Am
Looking for the world to be
             Em             G
Anything but what they see
              D           Am
Longing to be understood
                  Em
By the heart that shapes the wood
 
 
[INTERLUDE:] Em D  Am   Em
 
 
[VERSE 2:]
                           D
If you go into the forest, gaze up through the leaves
            C                 B7     Em
And see the sky that's almost wild
 
You can learn to understand
     D
What makes the forest greet the man
       C             B7      Em
Like a mother's only child
 
 
[VERSE 3:]
                                  D
In the north when winter's claw relaxes now 
                   C            B7     Em
To keep the law of nature in control
 
People come and stand in line
   D
To rob the forest of her wine
    C                   B7      G
But they don't feel the cold
 
 
[CHORUS:]
                D            Am
Looking for the world to be
             Em             G
Anything but what they see
              D           Am
Longing to be understood
                  Em
By the heart that shapes the wood
 
 
[INSTRUMENTAL:] G  D  Am  Em  G  D  Am  Em     D  Am   Em
                 Do do do do, etc., etc.
 
 
[VERSE 4:]
                                D
Love and maple syrup shine like embers warm
                           C             B7        Em
Like thoughts divine, they tell us it is spring
 
Love and maple syrup stir
    D
The thoughts of people into words
    C                   B7      Em
The songs that they can sing
 
 
[VERSE 5:]
                          D
Love and maple syrup go together
                         C                B7      Em
Like the sticky winds of winter when they meet
 
When lonely lovers come to rest
  D
Beneath the trees they do their best
    C                   B7      G
But still they can't be free

Anything but what they see
              D           Am
Longing to be understood
                  Em
By the heart that shapes the wood
