Tree Hugger

• A

A
The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
D                              E
The tree said, "I wish I could be
E
A different kind of tree,
A
The cat wished that it was a bee,
A
The turtle wished that it could fly
D                      
Really high into the sky,
E
Over rooftops and then dive
A
Deep into the sea.

A
And in the sea there is a fish,
D                            
A fish that has a secret wish,
E
A wish to be a big cactus
A
With a pink flower on it.
A
And in the sea there is a fish,
D
A fish that has a secret wish,
D                        E     
A wish to be a big cactus
A
With a pink flower on it.

A
And the flower
A         D
Would be its offering
 E               A
Of love to the desert.
A
And the desert,
A         D
So dry and lonely,
  E               
That the creatures all
E              A
Appreciate the effort.

A
And the rattlesnake said,
A               D
"I wish I had hands so
    D                   E
I could hug you like a man."
E 
And then the cactus said,
A
"Don't you understand,
A
My skin is covered with sharp spikes
D
That'll stab you like a thousand knives.
E
A hug would be nice,
A
But hug my flower with your eyes."

A                                 D
The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
D                              E
The tree said, "I wish I could be
E                   
A different kind of tree,
A
The cat wished that it was a bee,
A
The turtle wished that it could fly
D
Really high into the sky,
E
Over rooftops and then dive
A
Deep into the sea.


A
And in the sea there is a fish,
D                            E
A fish that has a secret wish,
E
A wish to be a big cactus
A
With a pink flower on it.
A
And in the sea there is a fish,
D
A fish that has a secret wish,
D                        E

A
And the flower
A         D

A         D
So dry and lonely,

Appreciate the effort.
