Standard (EADGBE)

Roots to grow and wings to fly

The world is cold, the world can lie

Every child has its own piece of sky

A place you hold till the day that you die

I wanna be heart, I wanna be true

I wanna be free to do the best I can

And that'll keep me satisfied

Chorus

Roots to grow and wings to fly

That's what your mama gave you

The world is cold, the world can lie

Nobody else will save you

My God he asks promises I just can't make

I need to search my wilder side

etc.

Somewhere I hear my name

far off in the haze

But now I don't feel the same

need somewhere else, somewhere else to play
