[Intro]
F#m A D Bm
D D A A

[Verse 1]
A D
I draw the outline of a tree, I see memories of me
Bm D A
As a young girl in a small town, underneath the linden trees
A D
I drew pictures, I wrote poems, I spent all my time alone
Bm A
'Neath the lindens in the graveyard close by my mother's home

[Instrumental]
F#m A D Bm D

[Verse 2]
A D
Well, my voice, it had a closed door, there was a closed door to my heart
Bm D A
I liked the quiet of my own time, liked the view from far apart
A D
But you saw me in the shadows and you brought me to the light
Bm A
And I listened as you taught me all the new things I could like

[Chorus]
D A
There were flowers on the graves
D Bm
There were lost and there were saved
D D
There were days upon endless days
A
'Neath the lindens

[Instrumental]
F#m A D Bm
D D D A
D Bm D D
A A A

[Verse 3]
A D
I found clarity and strength in the pages I would write
Bm D A
And I found I had my own thoughts; that yours weren't always mine
A D
So I went back to the shadows of a winter in my home
Bm A
And you watched my every move from behind the gravestones

[Verse 4]
A D
Well, you fought to keep me with you and I fought to stay alone
Bm D A
and though my childhood was ending, I wasn't ready to let it go
