D F# C#m A
E G A
Bm
[Chorus]
D F#
There is unrest in the forest
C#m A
There is trouble with the trees
E G
For the maples want more sunlight
A Bm
And the oaks ignore their pleas
[Post-Chorus]
D F# C#m A
E G A Bm D
A Bm
[Interlude]
F# G
[Verse 1]
A B
The trouble with the maples
G D/F#
And they're quite convinced they're right
A B
They say the oaks are just too lofty
G D/F# A
And they grab up all the light
B
But the oaks can't help their feelings
G D/F# A
If they like the way they're made
F#
And they wonder why the maples
G
Can't be happy in their shade
[Chorus]
A D F#
There is trouble in the forest
C#m A
And the creatures all have fled
E G A
As the maples scream "Oppression!"
Bm
And the oaks just shake their heads
[Post-Chorus]
D F# C#m A
E G A Bm

[Verse 2]
B5 F# A B
So the maples formed a union
G D/F#
And demanded equal rights
A B
"The oaks are just too greedy
G D/F# A
We will make them give us light"
B
Now there's no more oak oppression
G D/F# A
For they passed a noble law
[Outro]
F#
And the trees are all kept equal
G Asus2
By hatchet, axe, and saw.
