Intro:
Am Dm G C G (x2)
F E
Am Dm G C G
You are a bird and I am an old oak tree,
Am Dm G C G
You're free to fly while I am stuck on my knees...
Dm Am G
You built your nest in me, placed your trust in me,
C G
Rest your head, rest your wings...
Dm Am G C G
But opportunity flew you away from me and left me here on my own...
F E
I wonder if you ever will fly home...
C Am
I love my home, it's all I know,
F G
My roots run deep under these broken roads...
C Am
This damn city has been my family,
F G
But I'll be damned if I should up and leave...
F E
But still I wonder if I should uproot and go...
Am(one stroke) Dm G C G
Stuck in this dirt, my roots are veins for the earth,
Am Dm G C
I'll raise my branches high with pride for all the things that I've earned...
G
Dm Am G
And I can't walk away, it seems I'm here to stay to sort through this on my
C G
own,
Dm Am G C
Your obligation, no communication, oh, you're serving our nation's home...
G
