[Verse 1]
G Gaug Em
It’s true I am built like a tree
Gaug G Gaug
My branches reach out and my roots
Em Gaug
Dig into everything around me
C Cm
I’ve no use for tears, and you’ve noticed
G Gaug Em Gaug
I fear almost everything
G Gaug Em
I don’t have the option to break
Gaug G Gaug Em
Cause all of the people I love have their lives at stake
Gaug C Cm G Gaug
I feel so selfish, I feel so, insecure when I’m in pain
[Chorus]
Em G7
Please don’t hold me
Em Bm
I wouldn’t know how to let go
Em Bm
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
Em Bm
And the roots will dig into your soul
Em Gaug G Gaug
I want to go home
Em Cm
[Verse 2]
G Gaug Em
I am a shapeshifter, too
Gaug G Gaug Em
All of my colors can change if you want them to
Gaug C
Suited for you
Cm G Gaug Em Gaug
All of my roots, help me choose who to be
G Gaug Em
I don’t have control of my past
Gaug G Gaug Em
And even though I know that I still feel at fault
Gaug C
For the things I’ve been through
Cm G Gaug
I still would be sorry, if it wasn’t for you
[Chorus]
Em G7
Please don’t hold me
Em Bm
I wouldn’t know how to let go
Em Bm
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
Em Bm
And the roots will dig into your soul
Em Gaug G Gaug
I want to go home
[Verse 3]
G Gaug Em
I am the daughter of cups
Gaug G Gaug Em
Everything to offer, but it’s never enough
Gaug C
I’ll give you my soul if it means
Cm G Gaug
I will fill up that hole in your heart
[Chrous]
Em G7
Please don’t hold me
Em Bm
I’m still learning how to let go
Em Bm
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
Em Bm
And the roots will dig into your soul
Em Gaug G Gaug
I want to go home
Em Cm
[Bridge]
Em Gaug
I will never know if you're sorry
G Gaug
You will never know how you hurt me
C
And I wonder if you think about
Cm Em G7
The nights we spent on concrete floors
Em Cm G Gaug Em Gaug
Or the words you said behind closed doors
[Outro]
G Gaug Em
I am protecting my heart
Gaug G Gaug Em
Digging up my roots to replant for a start
Gaug C Cm
I shake your hand, make peace with the land
G Gaug Em G7
That you held over me
Em Cm
Which you'll never see
G
It's true, I am built like a tree
My branches reach out
And my roots dig into everything around me
I've no use for tears
And you've noticed
I fear almost everything
I don't have the option to break
Cause all of the people I love have their lives at stake
I feel so selfish
I feel so insecure when I'm in pain
Please don't hold me
I wouldn't know how to let go
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
And the roots will dig into your soul
I wanna go home
I am a shapeshifter too
All of my colors can change if you want them to
Suited for you
All of my roots help me choose who to be
I don't have control of my past
And even though I know that, I still feel at fault
For the things I've been through
I still would be sorry if it wasn't for you
Please don't hold me
I wouldn't know how to let go
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
And the roots will dig into your soul
I wanna go home
I am the daughter of cups
Everything to offer, but it's never enough
I'll give you my soul if it means I will fill up that hole in your heart
Please don't hold me
I'm still learning how to let go
When the forest inside my heart continues to grow
And the roots will dig into your soul
I wanna go home
I will never know if you're sorry
You will never know how you hurt me
And I wonder if you think about the nights we spent on concrete floors
Or the words you said behind closed doors
I am protecting my heart
Digging up my roots to replant for a start
I shake your hand
Make peace with the land that you held over me
Which you'll never see
