The Trees They Do Grow High
Joan Baez
Key : Fm
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
Fm

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Fm                       A#m
The trees they grow high,
          Fm             G#
The leaves  they do grow green
Cm                    Fm
  Many is the time my true love I've seen
C#           A#m    Fm                   G#
 Many an hour  I've watched him all alone
     Cm
He's young,
         A#m          Fm
But he's daily growing

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Fm           A#m
Father, dear father,
       Fm            G#
You've done me great wrong
Cm                       Fm
  You've married me to a boy who is too young
C#         A#m        Fm                G#
 I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen
     Cm
He's young,
         A#m          Fm
But he's daily growing

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Fm             A#m
Daughter, dear daughter,
     Fm          G#
I've done you no wrong
Cm                      Fm
  I've married you to a great lord's son
C#            A#m      Fm              G#
 He'll make a lord for you to wait upon
     Cm
He's young,
         A#m          Fm
But he's daily growing

[Verse 4]
---------------------
Fm           A#m        Fm      G#
Father, dear father, if you see fit
      Cm                      Fm
We'll send him to college for one year yet
     C#       A#m     Fm                 G#
I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head
   Cm              A#m               Fm
To let the maidens know that he's married

[Verse 5]
---------------------
    Fm        A#m             Fm              G#
One day I was looking o'er my father's castle wall
  Cm                    Fm
I spied all the boys as playing with the ball
   C#       A#m          Fm                G#
My own true love was the flower of them all
     Cm              A#m          Fm
He's young, but he's daily growing

[Verse 6]
---------------------
          Fm            A#m  Fm            G#
At the age  of fourteen,  he was a married man
       Cm                  Fm
At the age of fifteen, the father of a son
       C#             A#m   Fm                G#
At the age of sixteen,  his grave it was green
    Cm                  A#m             Fm
And death had put an end  to his growing
