Evergreen Tree Cifras

* = one strum
 
[Intro]
N.C.
Where the sun beats down there's an ocean breeze
N.C.
Where the lilies and the lavs gaze the blue-green sea
N.C.
Past the wood-worn mill where ol' Lazarus be
N.C.
That’s where you'll find the old evergreen tree
 
Am F E
 
 
[Verse 1]
        Am
Well it stands by the clouds, oh so high and mighty
(Am)
Father says if it'r human it would be our king
    F
But 'tisn't, so quit your worrying and sing
      Am                           E
As we dance around the fire by the evergreen tree
 
[Chorus]
Am
La da dee da da ladeeda
La da dee da da ladeeda
 
F E
 
 
[Verse 2]
           Am
Well therе came a day a woodpecker saw, he
(Am)
Said "This tree be too tall for I can scarce see!"
      F
Began peck-a-pecking wood with his tiny beak
       Am                     E
But he only put a dent in the evergreen tree
 
 
[Verse 3]
          Am
Soon that bird got his crew as his little army
(Am)
All his friends asked "What’s wrong with this big old thing?"
   F
He said to them "Oh it's not to my liking"
   Am                           E
So off they went destroying the evergreen tree
 
 
[Chorus]
Am
La da dee da da ladeeda
La da dee da da ladeeda
 
F E
 
[Verse 4]
       Am
With a couple years' work their project was complete
(Am)
They all backed away as they watched it lean
       F
And it fell down the hill, crashed into the sea
          Am                             E
All those birds cheered "Goodbye, ye old evergreen tree!"
 
Am F E
 
[Bridge]
     Am*
That woodpecker soon realized one small thing
N.C.
Asked around, "Oh have ye seen my family?"
        F*
All the birds questioned what this poor fellow could mean
          Am                              E         Am
Said "You mean the ones that lived in the evergreen tree?"
 
Am F E x2
 
[Pre-Chorus]
         Am
Let this be a lesson to all of ye
(Am)
Don't waste all your precious time worrying
      F
About things that are small in the big grand scheme
        Am                         E         Am
Let 'em be unlike the bird and the evergreen tree
 
[Outro]
Am
La da dee da da ladeeda
Am
La da dee da da ladeeda
Am
La da dee da da ladeeda
Am
Hey!
