🎸 Verse:
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
 I meant to leave the house this morning
      D MajorD        G+G
 And begin making my way toward where you are
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
 I meant to leave the house this morning
      D MajorD         G+G
 I made it halfway across the front yard

🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD            G+G
 But the plum tree hung heavy in my head
D MajorD            Bb majorBb     A augmentedA
 And the plum tree hung heavy in my heart
D MajorD            G+G   A augmentedA
 And the plum tree hung heavy over me

🎸 Verse:
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
 So I tore off to the phone
      D MajorD        G+G
 To call you and tell you something, but I couldn't remember what
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
 Because through the clean, clean windows
      D MajorD        G+G
 I saw the plum tree's leaves, as red as fresh blood

🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD            G+G
 But the plum tree hung heavy in my head
D MajorD            Bb majorBb     A augmentedA
 And the plum tree hung heavy in my heart
D MajorD            G+G   A augmentedA
 And the plum tree hung heavy over me
