Standard (EADGBE)

Roots before branches

To know who I am

Before I know

Who I wanna be

And faith

To take chances

To live like I see

A place in this world

For me

Sometimes I don't wanna feel

And forget the pain Is real

Put my head In the clouds

Oh, start to run And then I fall

Seein' I can't get it all

Without my feet On the ground

There's always a seed

Before there's a rose

The more that it rains

The more I will grow

I gotta have

Roots before branches

To know who I am

Before I know

Who I wanna be

And faith

To take chances

To live like I see

A place in this world

For me

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

But I'll still

Be standing

I'll be standing

I gotta have

Roots before branches

To know who I am

Before I know

Who I wanna be

And faith

To take chances

To live like I see

A place in this world

For me

I gotta have

Roots before branches

To know who I am

Before I know

Who I wanna be

And faith

To take chances

To live like I see

A place in this world

For me

I gotta have

Roots before branches
