 Bm
My roots are deeper than the bones the others
 F#m
My colors they change with the sun
 Bm
My branches we're higher than anything on the hillside
F#m
On the day that I watched them all come
( Bm  A  E  D )
( Bm  A  E )
 Bm
Some wear the color of the sky in the winter
 F#m
Some we're as blue as the night
      Bm
They came like a storm with the light of the morning
          F#m            E            F#m
And they fell thru the whole day and night
 A                         E              A
Colors flew high and they danced in the sky
      F#m                        D
As I watched them come over the hill
  A                 E                A
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
 F#m                 D
Such a great number lay still
( Bm  A  E  D )

          Bm
When the light came again there was death on the wind
        F#m           C#m         F#m
As the buzzards made way for the worms
         Bm
And the little white trees that don't bend in the breeze
        F#m             E     F#m
For the ones that will never return
 A                         E
Colors flew high and they danced in the sky
      F#m                        D
As I watched them come over the hill
  A                 E
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
 F#m                 D
Such a great number lay still
( Bm  A  E  D )
( Bm  A  E )
( Bm  A  E  D )
( Bm  A  E )
  Bm
Those that have fallen they come when I call them
    F#m
And answer the best that they can
    Bm
But all they can see is what they used to be
      F#m
And that's all that they understand
     A                         E
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
      F#m                        D
As I watched them come over the hill
  A                 E
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
 F#m                 D
Such a great number lay still
 A                         E
Colors flew high and they danced in the sky
      F#m                        D
As I watched them come over the hill
  A                 E
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
 F#m                 D
Such a great number lay still
