lyrics

C E Am
The majestic redwood tree
G G7 C
A finer thing you’ll never see
C E Am
And for what it’s worth
G G7 C
The oldest living thing on earth
C E Am
Stand there at her feet
G G7 C
Look up into the canopy
C E F
Her spirit is surrounding you
G G7 C
You’ll feel a part of nature too
C G C
Climbing high - the branches touch the sky
C G E Am
Reaching down - the roots are underground
D7
She’s strong and sound
G7
Never will fall down

C E Am
When insects look for food or homes
G G7 C
They leave the redwood tree alone
C E F
Fires burning wild and free
G G7 C
Rarely harm the redwood tree
C E Am
A forest swallowed up in flames
G G7 C
Only redwood trees remain
C E F
Many trees will fall
G G7 C
But she’s still standing tall

CHORUS


C E Am
In the 19th century
G G7 C
Loggers killed the redwood trees
C E F
They cut them down - hauled them away
G G7 C
Five percent remain today

C E Am
To protect the remaining few
G G7 C
It’s up to me it’s up to you
C E F
While you can you should go and see
G G7 C
The majestic redwood tree

CHORUS
