[Intro]
| G | G |

[Verse 1]
G G
Two trees in the forest, one was crooked, one was straight.
Em Em
Crimson bark and emerald needles, growing day by day.
C C
And though they looked so different, they enjoyed the rain the same,
G G
side by side.

[Verse 2]
G G
Chickadee had told them of a darkness on the land.
Em Em
Spinning blades that came to visit, carried by a man.
C C
And every other tree would see them cut down where they stand,
G G
by and by.

[Chorus]
Em C G*** D
Oh, can't you see, a crooked tree won't fit into the mill machine.
Em C G** D* G
They're left to grow, wild and free. Oh, I'd rather be a crooked tree.

[Break]
| G | G | Em | Em |
| C | C | G | G |

[Verse 3]
G G
The perfect trees were driven down the mountain to the mill.
Em Em
They turned them into toothpicks and twenty dollar bills.
C C
It seemed the more the people took, the more they needed still,
G G
in the end.

[Verse 4]
G G
The crooked trees were left there, after all the work was done.
