Last night I slept in a Sycamore tree
A7
With the wind and rain all around me
D G
Tonight I'll sleep in a warm feather bed
A7 D
With that girl I left behind me

D
Oh she jumped in bed, and she covered up her head
A7
And swore I couldn't find her
D G
But I knew damn well, that she lied like hell
A7 D
So I jumped right in behind her

Oh, the girl I left, the girl I left

The girl I left behind me

If ever I cross that bridge again
A7 D
I'll pick her up behind me
