She don't like snow or ice.
To leave things as [D#] they stand is my advice.
[C#] She's been [B] good to me,
[A] so I [B] tend to go there [F#] when I can.
She's my naughty fang,
[B] such a pretty thing.
[G#] She tries [F#] to be kind.
She gives [D#] birds a home and shelters there
[C#] in her coat [B] of green.
[A] She's as green [B] as evergreen [F#] can be.
She's a real delight,
[B] when little breezes [C#] call to ruffle up her [F#] skin.
[D#] Where the air is clear as it [F#] can be,
[C#m] hidden deep [B] within,
[A] I will [B] be her slave [F#] eternally.
Me and Sylvia have been able to cross that bridge,
bridge [G#] the gap between here and the States.
And they just gave me a hand right [G#] through the door
[F#] in order to do that.
She's my naughty fang,
[B] sunlight in her [C#m] hair by the [F#] serpentine.
[C#] Though she's independent, I [F#] don't mind
[C#] standing [B] over there,
just beyond that maple [F#] on the right.
She's naughty but wise,
[B] she holds her anger [C#m] in,
trees are [F#] her disguise.
Horns are taking root before my eyes,
[C#m] find them [B] if you can.
Among her boughs she keeps them out [F#] of sight.

She's my naughty fang,
[B] she leans with the wind,
[C#] she cries [F#] serpentine.
[G#] Sometimes she nettles me but I don't [F#]
mind,
[C#m] only now [B] and then,
[A] when her branches [B] bend beneath [F#] the snow.
