Verse 1:
C                  F          C
Once in my youth I stood on a mountain
                 G7           C
And planted some pines in the sand
              F          C
Every day I'd look their way
                    G7   C
But I just couldn't understand

Verse 2:
         G7
Why they never grew like
  F            C
I thought they should
  D7                       G7
I just couldn't understand why
         C
Now I've rambled around
     F           C
This whole world through
          G7              C
And today I just happened by
Chorus:
                F
Tall pines tall pines
C                   G7
Reaching up for the sky
     C          F
Tall pines tall pines
     C                G7      C
I'll bet you wouldn't know me now

Verse 3:
                      F         C
I'll never forget the morning I left
               G7          C
The hum of the bees in the hay

The farther I walked
    F           C
The louder they talked
              G7          C
How silent it seems there today

Verse 4:
            G7
There's the old red fence
   F             C
We built inch by inch
D7                         G7
Surrounding the old family graves
            C
And there's one red stone
F            C
Standing all alone
                 G7             C
There waitin' to meet me in the shade

Chorus:
                F
Tall pines tall pines
C                   G7
Reaching up for the sky
     C          F
Tall pines tall pines
          C       G7            F    G7  C
I've come home to sleep beneath your pines
