Lyrics
We scratched our names in that oak tree
'Cause I loved you, and you loved me
A jagged little heart, so the whole town knew it
Carved into the bark with an arrow through it
Well, I came out here to see it one more time
And I got my chainsaw
Oh, you know it's gotta go, it's such a shame, y'all
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
And I'm sittin' on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holdin' a chainsaw
(Whoo)
Well, guess all those years, they don't mean nothing
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, I don't have you
But I got my chainsaw
Oh, you know it's gotta go, it's such a shame, y'all
But I ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
And I'm sittin' on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holdin' a chainsaw
Whoa, yeah
Just a little old chainsaw
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 goin' down tonight
'Cause I got my chainsaw
It's got to go, it's such a shame, doll
But I ain't gonna be happy until those names fall
And I'm sittin' on a stump
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Love is shady
Love is tragic
It's hard to bury the hatchet
Holdin' a chainsaw
Chain-chain-chainsaw
Whoo!
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (chain-chainsaw)
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Ya-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ya-da-da-da-da-da
