I Told The Brook
Written and recorded by Marty Robbins

C          Em              F                C
I told the brook that runs down through the valley
  F         G7                C
A secret my best friend never knew
                   Em            F              C
The brook told the trees and the trees told the breeze
Dm                      G7
That I was in love with you

    C              Em             F            C
The trees told the flowers hiding there by the hilltop
    F               G7              C
The clouds told the moon that shone above
   F                   C                   Am
So angry yet blue when they found out that you
         C     G7          C
And your heart had another love

    F            Em        F            Em
The brook became angry and changed to a river
F          Em
Rushing so madly along
    F           G7          C                   G7
The soft summer breeze that played tag with the trees
  F       G7          C
Became so wild and so strong

                  Em             F            C
The bashful white flowers hiding there by the hilltop
F                  G7                C
Grew dark when the rain came pouring down
      F                            C               Am
Their hearts couldn't hide all the tears that were cried
        C        G7     C
And had carpeted on the ground

                    Em           F        C
The storm passed on over there's sunshine again
F               G7              C
The chains that held me are now gone
               Em         F          C
The trees wave hello as I stand here below
        Dm                       G7
And the brook sings the sweetest song

    C             Em          F            C
The bashful white flowers are again by the hilltop
F               G7                C
The sun and the moon are still my friends
  F                      Em                  F
I promise there'll be no more heartaches for me
     C         G7   C
Till I fall in love again
