feat tim reynolds
This is my first tab! I've tabbed this version off of the Farm Aid 2007 of Dave
and Tim. This is only Dave's side.
It's on Youtube if you care to play along.
Thank you to everyone who tabs here....it's made learning guitar for the past year a breeze!!
I'm glad that I could finally contribute my own.

Lyrics:
Dm | F# | C
Standing here | The old man said to me | Long before these crowded streets
Am | Dm | F#
Here stood my dreaming tree | Below it he would sit | For hours at a time
C | Am | Dm
Now progress takes away | What forever took to find | Now he's falling hard
F# | C | Am
He feels the falling dark | How he longs to be | Beneath his dreaming tree
Dm | F# | C
Conquered fear to climb | A moment froze in time | When the girl who first he kissed
Am | Dm | F#
Promised him she'd be his | Remembered mother's words | There beneath the tree
C | Am | Dm
No matter what the world | You'll always be my baby | Mommy come quick
F# | C | Am
The dreaming tree has died | The air is growing thick | A fear I cannot hide
Am
The dreaming tree has died
Am F# C played in interim... you'll have to listen to get the right pattern.
Chorus:

A G | F | D
Oh have you no pity | This thing I do | I do not deny it
A | G | F
All through this smile | As crooked as danger | I do not deny
D | A | G
I know in my mind | I would leave you now | If I had the strength to
F | D | A
I would leave you up | To your own devices | Will you not talk

Can you take pity | I don't ask much | But won't you speak Please

[Verse 2]
Dm | F# | C
From the start | She knew she had it made | Easy up 'til then
Am | Dm | F#
For sure she'd make the grade | Adorers came in hordes | To lay down in her wake
C | Am | Dm
She gave it all she had | But treasures slowly faded | Now she's falling hard
F# | C | Am
She feels the fall of dark | How did this fall apart | She drinks to fill it up
Dm | F# | C
A smile as sweet as flowers | Wilted so and soured | Black tears stain the cheeks
Am | Dm | F#
That once were so admired | She thinks when she was small | There on her father's knee
C | Am | Dm
How he had promised her | "You'll always be my baby" | "Daddy come quick
F# | C | Am
The dreaming tree has died | I can't find my way home | There is no place to hide
Am
The dreaming tree has died"
Am F# C played in interim... you'll have to listen to get the right pattern.
