REm REm LAm
Staning here the old man said to me "Long before these crowded streets
LAm REm REm
Here stood my dreaming tree" Below it he would sit For hours at a time
LAm LAm REm
Now progress takes away What forever took to find Now he's falling hard
REm LAm LAm
He feels the falling dark How he longs to be Beneath his dreaming tree
REm REm
Conquered fear to climb A moment froze in time When the girl who first
LAm LAm REm
he kissed Promised him she'd be his Remembered mother's words There
REm LAm LAm
beneath the tree "No matter what the world You'll always be my baby"
REm REm LAm
Mommy come quick The dreaming tree has died The air is growing thick A
LAm REm
fear he cannot hide The dreaming tree has died

[Verse 2]:
REm REm LAm
From the start She knew she had it made Easy up 'til then
LAm REm
For sure she'd make the grade Adorers came in hordes To lay down in
REm LAm LAm
her wake She gave it all she had But treasures slowly fade Now she's falling
REm REm LAm
hard She feels the fall of dark How did this fall apart She drinks to fill
LAm REm REm
it up A smile of sweetest flowers Wilted so and soured Black tears stain the
LAm LAm REm
cheeks That once were so admired She thinks when she was small there on her
REm LAm LAm
father's knee How he had promised her "You'll always be my baby"
REm REm LAm
"Daddy come quick The dreaming tree has died I can't find my way home
LAm REm
There is no place to hide The dreaming tree has died"
