Verse:
A minorAm A minorAm
A augmentedA mighty wind blew night and day
A minorAm A minorAm
It stole the oak tree leaves away
DmDm DmDm
Then snapped it boughs and pulled it’s bark
A minorAm A minorAm
Until the oak was standing stark (tired and stark? is it tired or still strong?)
E minorEm DmDm
But it had roots deep in the earth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Growing stronger since it’s birth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Verse:
A minorAm A minorAm
The wind grew stronger every hour
A minorAm A minorAm
But the oak refused to cower
DmDm DmDm
Even as a hurricane
A minorAm A minorAm
Every effort all in vane
E minorEm DmDm
The oak had roots deep in the earth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Growing stronger since it’s birth
Verse:
A minorAm A minorAm
That old oak just held it’s ground
A minorAm A minorAm
While other trees fell all around
DmDm DmDm
The weary wind gave up and spoke
A minorAm A minorAm
Why are you still standing oak
E minorEm DmDm
I have roots deep in the earth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Growing stronger since my birth
Verse:
A minorAm A minorAm
The tree said wind, I know that you
A minorAm A minorAm
Can break each branch of mine in two
DmDm DmDm
And carry every leaf away, so
A minorAm A minorAm
Shake my limbs and make me sway
E minorEm DmDm
For I have roots deep in the earth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Growing stronger since my birth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Chorus:
DmDm DmDm
With these roots strong in the ground
A minorAm A minorAm
There’s a power I have found
DmDm DmDm
You won’t touch them for you see
E7E7
They’re the deepest part me

With these roots strong in the ground

Verse:
A minorAm A minorAm
Wind, today I wasn’t sure
A minorAm A minorAm
Of just how much I might endure
DmDm DmDm
But now I found with thanks to you
A minorAm A minorAm
I’m stronger than I ever knew
E minorEm DmDm
With my roots deep in the earth
Outro:

So much stronger since my birth

So much stronger since my birth
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
So much stronger since my birth
