The Saw and the Tree Lyrics & Tabs by Tim Finn
The Saw and the Tree
guitar chords lyrics
T. Finn
In this house of wood, among the trembling leaves
Voices carrying through the walls and down the street
A man will lose his head not measuring his words
The story goes from bad to worse.
And I'm sorry if I hurt you like the saw cuts the tree
And I didn't want to bring you to your knees
An instrument of ignorance facing his reality
'Oh, I'm sorry' - cried the saw to the tree.
And I let you down, I tried to cut you down to size
There'll always be a battle when you hate to compromise
I tore your world apart when I b…ed my teeth
Now I know what lies underneath.
And I'm sorry if I hurt you like the saw cuts the tree
And I didn't want to bring you to your knees
Now I know what lies underneath.
And I'm sorry if I hurt you like the saw cuts the tree
And I didn't want to bring you to your knees
An instrument of ignorance facing his reality
'Oh, I'm sorry' - cried the saw to the tree.
And I'm sorry if I hurt you like the saw cuts the tree
And I didn't want to bring you to your knees
An instrument of ignorance facing his reality
'Oh, I'm sorry' - cried the saw to the tree.
There's no use blaming anyone least of all the family tree
It all starts now with this brutality
A prisoner of his own device making his apology
'Oh, I'm sorry' - cried the saw to the tree.
