Am G F C
Hunted down, I came upon
Bb Am
A place of ferns and grass
G F C
Gathered to a redbud tree
Bb Am
And now their footsteps pass
G F C
Where I crouch in dread
Bb Am
Discovery my certain death
G F C
Her leaves reaching for my head
Bb Am
As I suspend my breath
C Dm A
Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me
Dm G A
Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me
