Em                      C       Em
follow you down to the red oak tree
        G                          Am       Em
as the air moves thick through the hollow reeds
         Am                       C       Em
will you wait for me there until someone comes
    Am        D        Em
to carry me, carry me down

See I have not, I have not grown cold
I have stole from men who have stole from those
With their arms so thin and their skin so old
But you are young, you are young, you are young

      Bm                       C         G
then somebody laughs like it’s all just for hell
              Bm
as though we could not be saved from
     C    G
the depth of the well
          Am                     C       Em
but the cloth that i make is a cloth you can sell
    C                    D
to pay for the gossamer seed

Names get carved in the red oak tree
Of the ones who stay and the ones who leave
I will wait for you there with these cindered bones
So follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down
Follow me, follow me down
