Root Down

C                              F 
If I build it out of blood and bone 
Am                       G 
If I love it and I even give it a good name 
C                             F 
and I let it stand up on its own 
Am                           G 
and if I even never learn to trust and walk away 

C                       F 
Will it crumble on its own two feet 
Am                      G 
Or will it multiply and grow big white wings 
C                          F 
If I love it and I give it life 
Am                            G 
Can I let it go and know that it was never mine 


C                   F 
Give more, give it all away 
Dm             G 
I'm sure it'll come back someday 
C                          F 
You gotta let go to let it circle back around 
Dm                    G 
To rise up, you gotta learn to root down 
C     F Dm  G 
      I.... learned to root down. 
C     F Dm G 
      I... 



C                               F 
If I cut it with a heart-shaped knife 
Am                       G 
and I send it to my very closest of friends 
C                                 F 
and they somehow bring it back to life 
Am                        G 
what if I only ever do it all over again 

C                           F 
I'm a writer here upon this ship 
Am                      G 
on a sea of unnamed and untamed passages 
C                           F 
Every vessel's meant for pouring out 
Am                          G 
and every bloom has to make room to root down 


C                   F 
Give more, give it all away 
Dm             G 
I'm sure it'll come back someday 
C                          F 
You gotta let go to let it circle back around 
Dm                    G 
To rise up, you gotta learn to root down 
C     F Dm  G 
      I.... learned to root down. 
C     F Dm G 
      I...

 

C                   F 
Give more, give it all away 
Dm             G 
I'm sure it'll come back someday 
C                          F 
You gotta let go to let it circle back around 
Dm                    G 
To rise up, you gotta learn to root down
