Lake Fork Verne - I Plant This Tree Chords

I Plant This Tree
October 23, 2007----Valley Park Mo

(D) There it is,
I planted it for you and (A) me
It (D) is also (G) hers and (D) his
That small twig (A) will become a (D) tree

Chorus:

You  are never too (G) old to plant a (D) tree
It will be there to fill a (A) need
For (D) young and old (G) whatever their (D) need
So----time out, while I (A) plant this (D) tree

It could be white oak, (G) ash or maybe (D) pine
Made into ship keels, or sail (A) masts
Or (D) the wheel (G) on a steamship (D) line
Used for many  (A) things by pioneers (D) past

Now even (G) timber (D) waste
Becomes the much needed bio-(A) mass
Converted (D) to (G) needed (D) fuel
Including auto and (A) natural (D) gas

A  (G) sight to behold, to those here, early (D) on
Timberland spread from sea to (A) sea
And (D) with proper care (G) it will never be (D) gone
You are never too (A) old to plant a (D) tree

Chorus
