Pine Tree Just Over My Dash

February 25, 2013, Valley Park, Mo
Banjo tuned E, capo 1, Key of:  G

Chorus:
   G                    C
Place a pine tree on my headstone,
           D7         G
If you can arrange it please
                   C
As a symbol of all things good
     G                 D7        G
For efforts we made to save the trees

We turned poor, marginal cropland
Back to trees as was meant to be
Stopped erosion with waterways between
Saving the soil for others don't you see

A simple emblem of the lonesome pine
Maybe placed just above the "dash"
To signify those dreams of yours and mine
Becoming memories honed to avoid the flash.
                 (clutched)
Chorus again.
