Chorus:
 E             A
Kentucky Coffeetree,
                            E
You store so many memories for me,
                                B7
Lancelot leaves, long shiny seed pods
                                  E
Straight and tall, put there by my God

Your dark, green branches reach the sky
Soft shade for me, when the sun is hell high
Your strong presence, comforts me
I take pride in my Kentucky Coffeetree

You provide the cool, cool shade,
As I work here, every day
Recording the soft breezes
My worry and tensions eases

Deep furrowed bark eagerly soaks in,
So that I can start work again
You are that stately pal of mine
Your stark stature, my daily shrine

Chorus:

Tag:  Kentucky Coffeetree, the shade for me....
