Boys In The Trees chords by Carly Simon

Chords with lyrics

Boys In The Trees - From Boys In The Trees - 1978

G+G
I'm home again in my old narrow bed
G+G
Where I grew tall and my feet hung over the end
C majorC
The low beam room with the window looking out
     Cmaj7Cmaj7
On the soft summer garden
      B minorBm
Where the boys grew in the trees

G+G
Here I grew guilty
G+G
And no one was at fault
E minorEm
Frightened by the power
G+G
In every innocent thought
C majorC
And the silent understanding passing down
 Cmaj7Cmaj7
From daughter to daughter
B minorBm
Let the boys grow in the trees

G+G
Do you go to them
G+G
Or do you let them come to you
E minorEm
Do you stand in back
G+G
Afraid that you'll intrude
C majorC
Deny yourself and hope someone will see
 Cmaj7Cmaj7
And live like a flower
B minorBm
While the boys grow in the trees

G+G
Last night I slept in sheets the color of fire
E minorEm
Tonight I lie alone again
    G+G
And I curse my own desires
C majorC
Sentenced first to burn and then to freeze
 Cmaj7Cmaj7
And watch by the window
B minorBm
Where the boys grew in the trees
E minorEm
Boys in the trees
