(ver. 1)
Tom T. Hall
[Intro]
G  D/F#  Em  D
C  Bm  Am  G
Em  D  C
 
 
[Verse 1]
          G          D/F#            Em        D
There's a little ol' tree that grows out in my yard
     C        Bm          A           D
He's not very wide or too tall or too large
   G               D/F#           Em            D
He stands there so still 'til the wind comes to call
         C               Bm                 D        G
When the wind blows, the little tree starts having a ball
 
 
[Chorus]
   C                          G
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
    D                        G
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
   C                            G
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
                        D             G    Em  D  C
He dances so hard, I'm afraid he will fall
 
 
[Verse 2]
   G          D/F#            Em         D
He dances all summer and when snow comes down
   C          Bm             A             D
He dances and throws all his leaves on the ground
   G           D/F#         Em          D
He makes me so mad, I say, "Hey, if you please
          C         Bm           D              G
Would you stop that dancing each time there's a breeze?"
 
 
[Chorus]
   C                          G
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
    D                        G
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
   C                            G
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
                        D             G    D/F#  Em  D
He dances so hard, I'm afraid he will fall
G#  D#  Fm  D#
 
 
[Verse 3]
     G#       D#         Fm           D#
Now, I cannot dance very well, you'll agree
    C#          Cm           A#           D#
But sometimes I wish I could dance like a tree
    G#            D#           Fm           D#
I'd swing and I'd sway and I'd shake all my limbs
        C#         Cm              D#           G#
And I'd never fall down 'cause I'd be just like him
 
 
[Chorus]
   C#                         G#
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
    D#                       G#
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
   C#                           G#
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
                        D#            G#
He dances so hard, I'm afraid he will fall
N.C.
But he never does!
