Tree That Grows In Paris - Daniel James McFadyen
Chords - Drew Macko
[Verse 1]
G D C
The train is gone, the ships are sailing
G D C
The pearly gates are swinging closed
G D C
You've a got a chance to make it big kid
G D C
The water's cold, they're throwing stones
(Pre Chorus)
And I said
D
When I go don't take me up to heaven
C D
Just leave my soul I'll give what I've been getting and
[Chorus]
G D
Make me a tree that grows in Paris
C C
Where the old bricks lay next to the mausoleum
G D
Won't you make me the cliffs that line the island
C C
The big waves break and i'll just sit in silence
G D
Won't you make me the last line of the poem
C C
You can read me allowed but they won't know what you're sayin
G D
Just don't take me when I've done all that I needed
C
I've spent my breath
C
Oh father let me take it from here
[Verse 2]
G D C
I don't need wings, I don't need glory
G D C
Won't you get those lights out of my eyes
G D C
I've heard your songs, I've heard your stories
G D C
Forever's way too long of a time time time
(Pre Chorus)
D
So when I go don't take me up to heaven
C
Just leave my soul i'll give what I've been getting
D
I'll thank the cast I've had enough of judgement
C D
Just feel my heart it's warmer when you touch it
[Chorus]
G D
Make me a tree that grows in Paris
C C
Where the old bricks lay next to the mausoleum
G D
Won't you make me the cliffs that line the island
C C
The big waves break and i'll just sit in silence
G D
Won't you make me the last line of the poem
C C
You can read me allowed but they won't know what you're sayin
G D
Just don't take me when I've done all that I needed
C
I've spent my breath
C
Oh father let me take it from here
G D
So sweetheart, I love it when you miss me but
C C
It's too hard to love you when I know that we are
D
Lost stars looking for a purpose
C
When our bones start shaking
D
Our bones start shaking
Won't ya
[Chorus]
G D
Make me a tree that grows in Paris
C C
Where the old bricks lay next to the mausoleum
G D
Won't you make me the cliffs that line the island
C C
The big waves break and i'll just sit in silence
G D
Won't you make me the last line of the poem
C C
You can read me allowed but they won't know what you're sayin
G D
Just don't take me when I've done all that I needed
C
I've spent my breath
C
Oh father let me take it from here
(Closing)
