           Roots Before Branches







   Am
So many things 
          F
To do and say
     Am   
But I can't seem 
           F      
To find my way
      Am         F
But I wanna know how
   Am     
I know I'm meant 
              F
For something else
     Am                 F 
But first I gotta find myself
      Am         F    
But I don't know how
    F 
Oh, why do
                Am 
I reach for the stars
                  F
When I don't have wings 
                 G
To carry me that far? 

I gotta have
F            Am     G
Roots before branches
F             Am
To know who I am
         F
Before I know 
      G
Who I wanna be
    F
And faith
        Am    G 
To take chances
    F           Am
 To live like I see
F                G
 A place in this world
    C 
For me


Am        F
Sometimes I don't wanna feel
Am                  F 
 And forget the pain Is real
       Am          F      Am F
Put my head In the clouds
    Am                      F
Oh, start to run And then I fall
Am                    F
Seein' I can't get it all
           Am          F
Without my feet On the ground
                 F
There's always a seed
                  Am
 Before there's a rose
                  F
 The more that it rains
                G
The more I will grow

I gotta have
F            Am     G
Roots before branches
F             Am
To know who I am
         F
Before I know 
      G
Who I wanna be
    F
And faith
        Am    G 
To take chances
    F           Am
 To live like I see
F                G
 A place in this world
    C 
For me

Am        F
Whatever comes 
              Am
I know how to take it
            F
Learn to be strong 
                Am
I won't have to fake it
           F       G
Oh, you're understandin'
   F 
Oh, but when you come 
G
And do it best
F
There ain't nothin' 
           G
To stoppin' east to west 

F       
But I'll still 
G
Be standing 
F       G
I'll be standing
 
I gotta have
F            Am     G
Roots before branches
F             Am
To know who I am
         F
Before I know 
      G
Who I wanna be
    F
And faith
        Am    G 
To take chances
