Dm F C Bb

[Verse 1]
Dm                   F
I wasn't looking for trouble
     C                          Bb
When trouble came looking for me
Dm                       F
Just trying to find some shelter
       C                    Bb
When I found a palmetto tree
                Dm              F
She said you're safe beneath my branches
        C                 Bb
Stay as long as you please
          Dm                  F
If you're weary from all your running
       C                            Bb
I have fruit that taste like a peach

[Chorus 1]
         F     Bb      Dm     C
She said I can be your giving tree
   F          Bb         Dm   C
If your heart needs some therapy
    F          Bb             Dm         C
And though her branches were just out of reach
     F        Bb      Dm           C       F
I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach

Am Gm

    Bb    Dm    C        F
The day I met a palmetto peach

[Verse 2]
    Dm              F
The wind it left me tired
    C               Bb
The rain it left me cold
  Dm                  F
I asked her if it was normal
       C                     F
For a young man to feel this old?
    Dm                         F
And smiling she said you'll be fine dear
    C                   Bb
You just need a hand to hold
  Dm                  F
I promise if you hang in there you'll find
C                        Bb
Someone with a heart of gold

[Chorus 2]
         F     Bb      Dm     C
She said I can be your giving tree
   F          Bb         Dm   C
If your heart needs some therapy
    F          Bb             Dm         C
And though her branches were just out of reach
     F        Bb      Dm           C       F
I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach
      Am       Gm
La-da-da la-da-da
    Bb    Dm    C        F
The day I met a palmetto peach

[Instrumental]
Am Gm

[Chorus 3]
         F     Bb      Dm     C
She said I can be your giving tree
   F          Bb         Dm   C
If your heart needs some therapy
    F          Bb       Dm               C
And though her branches were just out of reach
     F        Bb      Dm           C       F
I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach

      Am       Gm
La-da-da la-da-da
    Bb    Dm    C        F
The day I met a palmetto peach
      Am       Gm
La-da-da la-da-da
    Bb    Dm    C        F
The day I met a palmetto peach

[Outro]
Am Gm Dm C F
