There is [D]unrest in the [F#]forest; 
there is [C#m]trouble with the [A]trees
For the [E]Maples want more [G]sunlight 
[A]and the [Bm]Oaks ignore their pleas

[D][F#][C#m][A][E][G][A][Bm]
[D][A][Bm][F#][G]

The [A]trouble with the [Bm]Maples 
and they're [G]quite con[D]vinced they're [A]right
They say the [A]Oaks are just too 
[Bm]lofty and they [G]grab up [D]all the [A]light
But the [A]Oaks can't help their 
[Bm]feelings if they [G]like the [D]way they're [A]made
And they [F#]wonder why the Maples 
can't be [G]happy in their shade[A][G][F#][E]

There is [D]trouble in the [F#]forest, 
and the [C#m]creatures all have [A]fled
As the [E]Maples scream op[G]pression 
[A]and the [Bm]Oaks just shake their heads

[D][F#][C#m][A][E][G][A][Bm]

So the [A]Maples formed a [Bm]union 
and de[G]manded [D]equal [A]rights
The [A]Oaks are just too [Bm]greedy, 
we will [G]make them [D]give us [A]light
Now there's [A]no more Oak op[Bm]pression, 
for they [G]passed a [D]noble [A]law
And the [F#]trees are all kept equal 
by [G]hatchet, axe, and [A]saw
