Follow You Down To The Red Oak Tree

	  		



Em                     C         Em 
Follow you down to the red oak tree 

       G                          Am       Em 
As the air moves thick through the hollow reeds 

        Am                        Em       C 
I will wait for you there until someone comes 

   Am                Em 
To carry me, carry me down 


    Em                C        Em 
See I have not I have not grown cold 

       G                       Am        Em 
I have stole from men who have stole from those 

            Am                    Em      C 
With their arms so thin and their skin so old 

            Am                       Em 
But you are young, you are young, you are young 


     Bm                        C       G 
Then somebody laughs like it's all just for hell 

              Bm                          C       G 
As though we could not be saved from the depth of the well 

         Am                     C           Em 
But the cloth that I make is a cloth you can sell 

   C                D 
To pay for the gossamer seed 


Em                       C      Em 
Names get carved in the red oak tree 

       G                     Am        Em 
Of the ones who stay and the ones who leave 

       Am                            C         Em 
I will wait for you there with these cindered bones 

   Am        D         Em 
So follow me, follow me down 

Am        D         Em 
Follow me, follow me down 

Am        D         Em 
Follow me, follow me down 

Am        D         Em 
Follow me, follow me down
