Tom: E
E A
Someday we'll have a tree
E A
Right now we have a seed
E A
Someday we'll find a way to the sea
E A
But right now we're caught in the reeds
[Pre-chorus]
E
Someday the shade we're wanting today
A
Will come dressed up just like an old oak
C#m
And someday our plans will look like a dance
F#m
With steps we made up on our own
[Chords]
A
And as the lilies grow
F#m
My love for you will show
E
Your roots will never know
C#m B A
What it means to go dry
E
Because why would I let them
A E
Oooooh, why would I let them
A
Oooooh
[Verse 2]
E A
Someday we will be free
E A
But right now we flow with the stream
E A
Someday waves will wash over our feet
E A
But right now you wash over me
[Pre-chorus]
E
Someday the place we're wanting today
A
Will come knocking and welcome us home
C#m
And someday our hands will know every strand
F#m
The threads that we spun on our own
[Chorus]
A
And as the lilies grow
F#m
My love for you will show
E
Your roots will never know
C#m B A
What it means to go dry
E
Because why would I let them
A E
Oooooh, why would I let them
A
Oooooh
[Bridge]
A
And I'll become your giving sea
F#m
All that you want from me
E G#m
How could I ever say no
A
I would cry just water you
F#m
Die just to feed your roots
E B
Calm all the waves in your storm
[Chords]
A*
And as the willows bend
F#m*
My love for you will send
E*
Your limbs will never know
C#m* B* A*
What it means to grow tired
E
Because why would I let them
A E
Oooooh, why would I let them
A E
Oooooh
