There is a tree, flowers in spring.
D#m F#
White cherry buds, twenty-two rings.

I helped her grow, but have never seen

Carolina winter or Aberdeen.

From the Missisippi floodgates my body churned.
D#m F#
Up the river delta my mother yearned
D#m F#
to taste the sweetness of her pain
C# D#m
fallin' down in Carolina rain.

If I'm to go, I'll go away
C# D#m
to Aberdeen and there I'll wait.

Taste of liquor on her mouth,
C# D#m
and her heart it wandered down to the south.

If I'm to go, I'll go away
C# D#m
to Aberdeen and there I'll wait.
