verse 1: 
                          D 
Love and maple syrup go together 
                         C                B7 
Like the sticky winds of winter when they meet 
     Em        
When lonely lovers come to rest 
      D 
Beneath the trees they do their best 
    C                   B7      G 
But still they can't be free 


 
                D            Am 
Looking for the world to be 
             Em             G 
Anything but what they see 
              D           Am 
Longing to be understood 
                  Em 
By the heart that shapes the wood 



INTERLUDE: Em D  Am   Em 


verse 2: 
                           D 
If you go into the forest, gaze up through the leaves 
            C                 B7     Em 
And see the sky that's almost wild 
             
You can learn to understand 
     D 
What makes the forest greet the man 
       C             B7      Em 
Like a mother's only child 


verse 3: 
                                  D 
In the north when winter's claw relaxes now  
                   C            B7     Em 
To keep the law of nature in control 

People come and stand in line 
   D 
To rob the forest of her wine 
    C                   B7      G 
But they don't feel the cold 


 
                D            Am 
Looking for the world to be 
             Em             G 
Anything but what they see 
              D           Am 
Longing to be understood 
                  Em 
By the heart that shapes the wood

                                D 
Love and maple syrup shine like embers warm 
                           C             B7        Em 
Like thoughts divine, they tell us it is spring 

Love and maple syrup stir 
    D 
The thoughts of people into words 
    C                   B7      Em 
The songs that they can sing

When lonely lovers come to rest

Beneath the trees they do their best 
    C                   B7      G 
But still they can't be free
