[Intro]
A
[Strophe]
A 
We scratched our names in that oak tree 
A 
'Cause I loved you and you loved me 
D 
A jagged little heart so the whole town knew it 
D                                           A 
Carved in the bark with an arrow through it 
           E                       D 
I came out here to see it one more time
[Refrain]
             A 
And I got my chainsaw 
       D                G               A 
Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all 
    D                G                A          C  D  F 
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall 
                     A 
And I'm sittin' on a stump 
A 
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet 
N.C.         A 
     Holdin' a chainsaw
[Strophe]
A 
I guess all those years, they don't mean a thing 
A 
Now I can't wait, to count those rings 
D 
Nothing left of us but dust and splinters 
D                                                      A 
A big pile of wood to keep me warm through the wint-er-er 
       E               D 
'Cause I, I don't have you
[Refrain]
             A 
But I got my chainsaw 
       D                G               A 
Oh you know it's got to go, it's such a shame y'all 
    D                G                A          C  D  F 
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall 
                     A 
And I'm sittin' on a stump 
A 
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet 
(no chord)     D         C  A 
     Holdin' a chainsaw 
                D        C 
Just a lil' ol' chainsaw
[Pont]
      A                       D 
I remember what you said that night 
               A                            D 
That you would love me for the rest of your life 
           G                   D/F# 
We wrote forever with a pocketknife 
    E 
But forever's goin' down tonight
[Refrain]
               A 
Cause I got my chainsaw 
D             G               A 
  It's got to go, it's such a shame doll 
    D                G                A          C  D  F 
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall 
                     A 
And I'm sittin' on a stump 
A 
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet 
A 
Love is shady, love is tragic, it's hard to bury the hatchet 
N.C.           A 
     Holdin' a chainsaw, chain-chain-chainsaw, wooh, dananananah na na-a-ah, danananana na ah 
A 
Yadadadada na na-a-nah, Yadadada da da.
