A                                     D 
Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you  
        A                      E7 
to come back to me, but you're so far away.  
A                         D 
I just sit by here in the morning sun,  
      A          E7    A 
and I wait under the willow tree.  

         F#m                  B    
It was a bitter seed that you left that day  
         E7 
when you walked out my door screaming 'Get out of my face!'  
                F#m              B 
I took all your hurtin' words, I took your bad deeds  
      E7   
and I buried 'em deep underneath that tree.  

          A                           D 
Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you  
        A                      E7 
to come back to me, but you're so far away.  
       A                  D             
I just sit by here in the morning sun, 
      A              E7     A 
and I wait under the willow tree.  

 

         F#m              B    
But such beauty grew from bitterness.  
     E7 
Oh how it's helped to heal this heavy heart,  
         F#m              B  
oh and I want you to know, yeah that it's ok.  
            E7 
If you come back I would welcome you like it was yesterday.  

A                                     D 
Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you  
        A                       E7 
to come back to me, but you're so far away.  
       A                  D 
I just sit by here in the morning sun,  
      A          E7         A 
and I wait under the willow tree.  

 
        F#m                    B    
Oh, but I'm not asking you for union, no-no.  
       E7 
I want your promise to be true oh,  
        F#m                      B 
'Cos I've been around the world, honey I've seen enough to know -  
      E7 
there aint nobody else. I'd rather walk with you.  

A                                     D 
Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you  
A                              E7   
to come back to me, but you're so far away.  
A                           D 
I just sit right here and I play my guitar,  
A          E7               A 
and I wait under the willow tree.  
A         E7     A 
Under the willow tree.
