Roots Before Branches
Em C
So many things to do and say
Em C

I reach for the stars

When I don't have wings

Em C
And forget the pain is real
Em C Em C
Put my head in the clouds
Em C
Oh, start to run and then I fall
Em C
Seein' I can't get it all

Before there's a rose

The more that it rains

The more I will grow

(Not sure on the chords for this bit, terribly sorry)
Whatever comes
I know how to take it
Learn to be strong
I won't have to fake it
Oh, you're understandin'
Oh, but when you come
And do it best
There ain't nothin'
To stoppin' east to west
(I'm not sure
if this is right)
But I'll still
Be standing
I'll be standing
