🎸 Verse :
A minorAm          D MajorD
deep in the cover of russet and green
 A minorAm           D MajorD
i move like my brother, i know i’m not seen
A minorAm              D MajorD
out in the world shine like light through the leaves
   A minorAm             C/GC/G
then come to the woods to feel clean

🎸 Verse :
A minorAm             D MajorD
i was a stain scrubbed from family lands
   A minorAm             D MajorD
they must of known then i’d have blood on my hands
  A minorAm            D MajorD
we left to find mother, knew she’d understand
  A minorAm            C/GC/G
we found the destruction; we ran


🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD            A minorAm
nothing from nothing is not how i’ll stay
    C/GC/G            G+G     D MajorD
so i’ll cling to the treasures i find on the way
D MajorD            A minorAm
gold and good people, collect them the same
  C/GC/G
i’ll know what it means to be safe

🎸 Verse :
  A minorAm            D MajorD
the aching is soothed by the wealth we’ve amassed
  A minorAm             D MajorD
but old hurts and scarring need cures that will last
   A minorAm          D MajorD
i’ll earn a new future to buy out my past
  A minorAm            C/GC/G
new fortune, new family, hold fast


🎸 Chorus:
 D MajorD           A minorAm
again i learn safety is not guaranteed
  C/GC/G         G+G      D MajorD
my life for another, my brother to plead
D MajorD              A minorAm
and loosed like an arrow, a burning new need
 C/GC/G
i take to the sky; i am freed



🎸 Verse :
 A minorAm          D MajorD
i know i am charming, i know i am swift
    A minorAm              D MajorD
but the trees see right through me, a wound and a gift
 A minorAm           D MajorD
i cut out the cancer and choose to forgive
  A minorAm         C/GC/G
i choose to let go, choose to live


🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD            A minorAm
nothing from nothing is not how i’ll stay
   C/GC/G          D MajorD      D MajorD
i’ll plant a new forest and find my own way
D MajorD             A minorAm
loved and worth loving — i feel them the same
 C/GC/G
i know what it means to be safe
