[Verse 1:]
We scratched our names
In that oak tree
Because I loved you
And you loved me
A jagged little heart so the whole town knew it
Carved in the bark with an arrow through it
I came out here to see it one more time
[Chorus:]
And I got my chainsaw
Oh you know it's got to go,
It's such a shame you all
But I ain't going to be happy
Until those names fall
And I'm sitting on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holding a chainsaw
[Verse 2:]
I guess all those years
They don't mean a thing
Now I can't wait
To count those rings
Nothing left of us but dust and splinters
A big pile of wood to keep me warm through the winter
Because I don't have you
[Chorus:]
And I got my chainsaw
Oh you know it's got to go,
It's such a shame you all
But I ain't going to be happy
Until those names fall
And I'm sitting on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holding a chainsaw
[Verse 3:]
I remember what you said that night
That you would love me for the rest of your life
We wrote forever with a pocketknife
But forever's going down tonight
[Chorus:]
And I got my chainsaw
Oh you know it's got to go,
It's such a shame you all
But I ain't going to be happy
Until those names fall
And I'm sitting on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holding a chainsaw
