Lone Tree Standing
Odd Man In
Banjo tuned E, Capo 2, Key D(sound byte)
Cd in key of G
D G D
Now the stars are fading-- in the morning light
G D
And you're warm beside me in the early bright
G D
You're the one I wanted, you're the one I need
A D
And I feel so safe here and I feel so free
I'd like to freeze this moment, I want to take this time
I want to keep it with me, I want to make it mine
But why cheat the future, why be afraid
Cause when you have what I have, you know you got it made
Chorus:
D G D
Like a lone tree standing on a mountain top
G D
One that keeps on living, one that just can't stop
G D
That's the kind of loving that I have for you
A D
And when the storm is over, I'll be there and true
Instrumental:
Many times I'm humbled--- by the ways of life
And how a man can stumble onto fate's sharp knife
But I'm never worried, no I'm never scared
When you're here beside me, I know that I'll be spared
Cause you don't take chances, you don't like loose talk
And your ways are constant, you're a solid rock
You're the one I wanted, you're the one I need
And you showed me a new life and you helped me to be
Chorus
