DWell, I'm trying
DYes, I'm trying just to get a line on you

ASomebody else been shaking your tDree
ASupposed to be saving all that stuff for meD

DYou're sneaking 'round, sneaking 'round

ASupposed to be saving all that stuff for meD  F

DN.C.
I'm tired of fooling around with you, and sitting here alone
N.C.
It's on my mind, it's on my mind
N.C.
I think it's time for me to find a new tree of my own
N.C.
It's planting time, it's planting time
AAnything you wanna do is cool with me
AI don't care who shakes your tree
