The Band Perry, Chainsaw


(intro)
A


(verse)
A
We scratched our names in that oak tree
A
'Cause I loved you and you loved me
D

A jagged little heart so the whole town knew it
D                                           A
Carved in the bark with an arrow through it
           E                       D
I came out here to see it one more time


(chorus)
             A
And I got my chainsaw
       D                G               A
Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all
    D                G                A          C  D  F
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
                     A
And I'm sittin' on a stump
A
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
(no chord)     A
     Holdin' a chainsaw


(verse)
A
I guess all those years, they don't mean a thing
A
Now I can't wait, to count those rings
D
Nothing left of us but dust and splinters
D                                                      A
A big pile of wood to keep me warm through the wint-er-er
       E               D
'Cause I, I don't have you


(chorus)
             A
But I got my chainsaw
       D                G               A
Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all
    D                G                A          C  D  F
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
                     A
And I'm sittin' on a stump
A
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
(no chord)     D         C  A
     Holdin' a chainsaw
                D        C
Just a lil' ol' chainsaw


(bridge)
      A                       D
I remember what you said that night
               A                            D
That you would love me for the rest of your life
         A                    D
We wrote forever with a pocketknife
    E
But forever's goin' down tonight


(chorus-out)
               A
Cause I got my chainsaw
D             G               A
  It's got to go, it's such a shame doll
    D                G                A          C  D  F
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
                     A
And I'm sittin' on a stump
A
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
A
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet
(no chord)     A
     Holdin' a chainsaw, chain-chain-chainsaw, wooh, dananananah na na-a-ah, danananana
na ah
A
