My Roots Go Deep chords by Markéta Irglová

• Difficulty: Intermediate

♫ Verse 1:
Dm
I keep it on
G                              C
This ring, the feather of a swan
Am                        Dm
You gave to me some years ago
G                       C F C
In the land of fire and snow
Dm               G                       C   Am
In those days we burned brighter than the sun
Dm           F         G
As we came together as one

♫ Verse 2:
       Dm
Can't take it off
G                           C   Am
This weathered token of our love
                             Dm
You made for me when we were new
G                                   C F C
From threads of dreams in shades of blue
Dm               G                       C  Am
In those days we made circles 'round the moon
           Dm        F        G
And those times were over too soon

♫ Pre-Chorus:
C                            Em
But Lord, I do not weep upon waking from a sleep
            Am G F
Drеaming of heaven
      Dm                              F
For I remember all too well how close heaven is to hell
    G
And all of them crash landings I've endured

♫ Chorus:
                     Em
I am letting down my roots
                           Am
I am getting good at being still
                             F
I have stopped chasing after things
                            G
I am like the church upon a hill
  B                   Em       C
I allow all things to come to me
                G         B
I am a tall and mighty tree
             Em        C
I can weather any storm, 'cause
            G                 Bm
My roots go deep, my roots go deep
            Em                C
My roots go deep, my roots go deep
            G                 Bm
My roots go deep, my roots go deep

My roots go deep

♫ Bridge:
Em                              C
Don't you ever wish there was a word
G                       Bm
In a language everybody understands
Em                                C
You could say when words were not enough
G                                    Bm
To explain to others what your heart commands
Em                                    C
By uttering the word our hearts would open
G                            Bm
Communicating freely without fear
Em                                     C
The fear we've held about speaking our truth
G                             Bm
When it might be difficult to hear
Em                              C    D
We would find it easier just to listen
G                            Bm
Synchronised in every single beat
Em                                    C
In a place of purest love and deepest wisdom
G                            D
Maybe we would finally get to meet
