Cherry Blossom Love chords by The Wailin Jennys

Em                A
She waited under wildwood, under maple and pine
D         Dm       G      Am
Wondering when her cherry blossom love would arrive

Em             A
He once was a young man in love with a girl like me
D         Dm       G
They?d sit alone together under a cherry blossom tree

Em                   A
Time would turn their sunny day like magic into dusk
D        Dm    G
A single moment suddenly a year passed by in love

        C
But then he was gone
     E
He was gone
    A                  D          G
She searched for him then sat beneath their tree and sang this song

   C                 E
I?ll wait for your return my love under our cherry blossom tree
  A                 D      G
And if you cannot meet me there I?ll try another tree

   C
I?ll sit beneath a hemlock
   E
I?ll sit below a pine
    A                 D        G
I?ll sit under the peach tree where you told me you were mine

    C                E
I?ll wait for you through winter when all the leaves have died
    A                D        G   Am
I?ll wait for you to come to me with snow tears in my eyes

C Am C
Ooh ~

F               Am
All is gone from me today and till the end of time
   G                    F
Her hair grew gray and blossoms layered her body like a vine
    Dm                Am
The blossoms planted seeds and cherries fell across her chest
     E             F
They covered the ground around and muffled her request
    G             Am
The Cherry lady laden with the saddest fruit to bear
    Dm        Am       E        Am
The sweetest juice left bitter proof of love?s uncertain care

        C
Cause he was gone
    E
He was gone

    A                  D          G
She searched for him then sat beneath their tree and sang this song
   C                  E
I?ll wait for your return my love under our cherry blossom tree
   F                 G
and if you cannot meet me there I?ll never never be
