The chorus is a little shaky. The A#'s are technically correct, but a lot of the
time you can interchange them with Dm's with little issue. This tab has room for
improvement, I think. Let me know what you think. I love this song.
[G] [Dm] [F] [C]
Well I knew a dealer, dan, and he'd say
Don't worry 'bout me -
I'm never gonna fit the plan
And I'll never work for free
And then he spent some time in a state penitentiary
I believe he made ten cents an hour
And I knew a girl in college
Sweet as the summer sun
Never worried 'bout books and knowledge
She was having too much fun
And I hear these days she's living at home with a three year old son
Reading up on women taking power
G Bb
The trees grow high
C Bb
And the leaves they grow green
[G] And [Bb]me oh my all [C]the things that I [D]have seen
G Bb
Don't be surprised little bro
C Bb
When the world turns out mean
G Bb C Bb
Life is what happens in between
G Dm F C
Well I know a man, old man, about ninety five
He could hardly see nor stand
But he was goddamn glad to be alive
And he said, hey son go and taste of life!
Get in your car and drive.
And that's exactly what I do
But out here on the road
You know a man leads a simple life
Don't carry no heavy loads
And he don't get time for a lady or a wife
But sometimes the stars I'm followin'
Well they don't shine so bright
And that's when I wish I was home with you
G Bb
The trees grow high
C Bb
And the leaves they grow green
[G] And [Bb]me oh my all [C]the things that I [D]have seen
G Bb
Don't be surprised little bro
C Bb
When the world turns out mean
G Bb C Bb
Life is what happens in between
G Dm F C
Well you remember our dad, remember what he said?
He said, this here's a family,
Gonna be together 'til we're dead
Ten years and two homes ago
It ain't quite what turned out to be
And I still hear those words
They ring and ring and ring inside of me
G Bb
The trees grow high
C Bb
And the leaves they grow green
[G] And [Bb]me oh my all [C]the things that I [D]have seen
G Bb
Don't be surprised little bro
C Bb
When the world turns out mean

Life is what happens in between
