A day in the lofe of a tree(Chords)

	        D          F#m/D        Em7/D      D7 
Feel the wind burn through my skin 
     Em7/D     A7/D           D 
The pain, the air is killing me 
       D        F#m/D          Em7/D    D7 
For years my limbs stretched to the sky 
    Em7/D    A7/D             D 
A nest for birds to sit and sing 
      G      A7     A#dim  Bm       D7                   Em 
But now my branches suffer and my leaves don't bear the glow 
F#m   Em7/G   A7   D 
They did so long ago 
 
D        F#m/D    Em7/D    D7 
One day I was full of life 
    Em7/D    A7/D              D 
My sap was rich and I was strong 
        D      F#m/D   Em7/D   D7 
>From seed to tree I grew so tall 
          Em7/D     A7/D             D 
Through wind and rain I could not fall 
     G        A7     A#dim  Bm      D7               Em 
But now my branches suffer and my leaves don't offer 
F#m  Em7/G  A7      D 
Poetry to men of song 
 
D           F#m/D                 Em7/D   D7                 Em7/D 
Trees like me weren't meant to live if all this world can give 
        A7/D             D 
Is pollution and slow death 
     F#m D F         Em7/D    D7               Em7/D 
Oh Lord I lay me down no life's left to be found 
           A7/D            D 
There's nothing left for me 
(D)         F#m/D                Em7/D   D7                  Em7/D 
Trees like me weren't meant to live if all this earth can give 
       A7/D      D 
Is pollution 
    F#m/D          Em7/D     D7             Em7/D 
Oh Lord I lay me down my branches to the ground 
          A7/D             D 
There's nothing left for me
