[Verse 1]
DmI keep it on
GThis ring, the feather of a swaCn
AmYou gave to me some years Dmago
GIn the land of fire and CsnFowC  
DmIn those days we Gburned brighter than the CsunAm  
DmAs we came toFgether as Gone
[Verse 2]
Can't tDmake it off
GThis weathered token of our CloveAm  
You made for me when we were Dmnew
GFrom threads of dreams in shades of CblFueC  
DmIn those days we Gmade circles 'round the CmooAmn
And those tDmimes were Fover too Gsoon
[Pre-Chorus]
CBut Lord, I do not weep upon Emwaking from a sleep
Drеaming of AmheaGveFn
For I Dmremember all too well how close Fheaven is to hell
And Gall of them crash landings I've endured
[Chorus]
I am letting down my Emroots
I am getting good at being Amstill
I have stopped chasing after Fthings
I am like the church upon a Ghill
I Ballow all things to Emcome to mCe
I am a tall and Gmighty treBe
I can weather Emany stormC, 'cause
My roots go Gdeep, my roots go Bmdeep
My roots go Emdeep, my roots go Cdeep
My roots go Gdeep, my roots go Bmdeep
My roots go deep
[Bridge]
EmDon't you ever wish there was a Cword
GIn a language everybody Bmunderstands
EmYou could say when words were not Cenough
GTo explain to others what your heart Bmcommands
EmBy uttering the word our hearts would Copen
GCommunicating freely without Bmfear
EmThe fear we've held about speaking our Ctruth
GWhen it might be difficult to Bmhear
EmWe would find it easier just to ClisteDn
GSynchronised in every single Bmbeat
EmIn a place of purest love and deepest Cwisdom
GMaybe we would finally get to Dmeet
