1. You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me
       F#                  E                     H
   And that’s what made me see where I was going wrong
   You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself
   I can only blame myself, you can only blame me

R: And I could write a song a hundred miles long
        E              H                          F#
   Well that’s where I belong and you belong with me
   And I could write it down or spread it all around
   Get lost and then get found or swallowed in the sea
   
2. You put me on a line and hung me out to dry
   Darling that’s when I decided to go to see you
   You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes
   Made me realize what I could not see
   
R: And I could write a book, the one they'll say that shook the world
   And then it took, it took it back from me
   And I could write it down and spread it all around
   Get lost and then get found and you'll come back to me
       E                H
   Not swallowed in the sea

   Oohhhhh ahhhhhh  
   
R: And I could write a song a hundred miles long
   Well that’s where I belong and you belong with me
   The streets you’re walking on, a thousand houses long
   Well that’s where I belong and you belong with me
   
3. Oh what good is it to live with nothing left to give
   Forget but not forgive, not loving all you see
   Oh the streets you’re walking on a thousand houses long
   Well that’s where I belong and you belong with me
   Not swallowed in the sea
   
   You belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
   Yeah you belong with me
   
       E         F#     H
   Not swallowed in the sea.
