The Best God Damn Tree Planter I Ever Knew by Tyler Moyer
Tree Planting song that floated around camp my first year
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C F
Late at night, he dreams of the block
G C
They're spinning around his head, like the arms of a clock
F C Am
If you ask him why he came back to this shitty northern town
G F C
He'd say to slut some dirty old trees into the ground
[Verse 2]
C F
His old wrists can't take it anymore
G C
His screefing knee is really friggin sore
F C Am
And if you ask him why he's taking all these pain pills now
G F C
He'd say to slut some dirty old trees into the ground
[Chorus]
F C
Cause he's a highballer in sweet and sour cream
G C
he runs on cigarettes and some acetaminophen
F C Am
When he gets out of the bush he doesn't know just what to do
G F C
He was the best god damn tree planter I ever knew
[Verse 3]
C F
Well he never was a crewboss but he could manage land
G C
He had to quit the banjo cause he mangled hands
F C Am
Lord and when he gets back to the cache he never does sit down
G F C
Has to slut some dirty old trees into the ground
[Verse 4]
C F
Strategic land utiliazation techniques
G C
sluttin' doesn't mean you have to have poor qualility
F C Am
Lord and after every single shift he drinks till he falls down
G F C
Waits to slut some dirty old trees into the ground
[Chorus]
F C
Cause he's a highballer in sweet and sour cream
G C
he runs on cigarettes and some acetaminophen
F C Am
When he gets out of the bush he doesn't know just what to do
G F C
He was the best god damn tree planter I ever knew
[Verse 4]
C F
He told me that his wife was filling for divorce
G C
He told me that he loves her but he loves tree planting more
F C Am
Told me every single year he leaves without making a sound
G F C
Just to slut some dirty old trees into the ground
[Verse 5]
C F
For the last ten years hes been living in a tent
G C
He doesn't have a tv but he sure does pay his rent
F C Am
Well he told me that he has to get his life back on the ground
G F C
No more sluttin them dirty old trees into the ground
[Chorus]
F C
He was a highballer in sweet and sour cream
G C
he ran on cigarettes and some acetaminophen
F C Am
now that he's out of the bush he doesn't know just what to do
G F C
He was the best god damn tree planter I ever knew
[Outro]
G F C
He was the best god damn tree planter I ever knew ou ou
G F C
He was the best god damn tree planter I ever knew
