C      Em    Am                    F
Willow tree, I’ve watched and I’ve waited
Dm     G                        C
Crying forlorn on the bank of a stream
C             Em             Am         F
For some loss of a friend or lover
Dm                         G                F
Hoping that time will intervene
Dm              G
Is all that you need
Dm              C
Just someone to believe

[Verse 2]
C
Stand under your boughs
Em              Am      F
And reach out a hand
Dm
The truth of the hand
G
That touches your leaves
F            C
All that you are

[Verse 3]
C                   Em              Am          F
Willow tree wooden, were you once a woman?
Dm     G                        C
Crying forlorn on the bank of a stream
C                    Em               Am                F
For some tragic loss of a friend or a lover
Dm               G         F
Hoping that time will pass away

[Verse 4]
C            Em                    Am               F
Willow tree, I’ve watched and I’ve waited
Dm                    G                       C
I’ve been lit by both moonbeam and sun of the day
Dm                   G         F
Biding my time here
F
Just sitting and thinking
Dm             G                F               C
How many years before you fade away?
