Intro
A#m F#
[Verse]
C# A#m F#
Oh, got my hands tied around my back
C# A#m F#
And time put a rope around my head
C# A#m F#
And hung from the rafters of my fear
C# A#m
Dark in the eyes, tryna face the world
F# C#
I can’t bare to, my knees hit the ground and
C#
My hands start shaking
A#m F#
Old feelings from new faces
C#
D# rope on the floor and a poor man hanging
[Chorus]
A#m F# C#
Please help me chop this tree down
A#m F# C#
Hold me from underneath
A#m F# C#
Words never once cut me down
A#m F# C#
Oh, don’t you cry for me
[Verse]
A#m F#
C# A#m F#
I’ve seen an ocean runaway
C# A#m F#
I’m torn from the truth that holds my soul
C# A#m F#
I’m down in the grave where i belong
C# A#m F#
Oh what a ride, I dare to fight my devil
C#
Wings to the sky on the run from trouble
A#m F#
With my own hands, no shovel
C#
I dug in the ground, now hanging above saying
[Chorus]
A#m F# C#
Please help me chop this tree down
A#m F# C#
Hold me from underneath
A#m F# C#
Words never once cut me down
A#m F# C#
Oh, don’t you cry for me
[Bridge]
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
C#
When the gravel got paved, finally I’m saved
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
C#
When the grovel got paved, finally I’m saved
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
(when the sun went down)
C#
Hen the grovel got paved, finally i'm saved
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
(It set the sky on fire)
C#
When the gravel got paved, finally i'm saved
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
(I saw an angel fly)
C#
When the gravel got paved, finally i'm saved
A#m F#
Down by the grave that the law man laid
(I never felt so high)
C#
When the gravel got paved, finally i'm saved
[Chorus]
A#m F# C#
Please help me chop this tree down
A#m F# C#
Hold me from underneath
A#m F# C#
Words never once cut me down
A#m F# C#
Oh, don’t you cry for me
A#m F# C#
Oh, don’t you cry for me
A#M F# C#
Oh, don’t you cry for me
