SteelDrivers - Sticks That Made Thunder

Capo 2


  A minorAm
My roots are deeper than the bones than the others
  E MajorE
My colors that change with the sun
  A minorAm
My branches we're higher than anything on the hillside
    E minorEm
On the day that I watched them all come


   A minorAm
Some wear the color of the sky in the winter
   E MajorE
Some, were as blue as the night
   A minorAm
They came like a storm with the light of the morn
     E minorEm
And they fell through the whole day and night

Chorus:

  G+G             D MajorD
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
   E minorEm             C majorC
As I watched them come over the hill
G+G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
    E minorEm        C majorC
Such a great number lay still


   A minorAm
When the light came again there was death on the wind
  E MajorE
As the buzzards made way for the worms
  A minorAm
And the little white trees that don't bend in the breeze
    E minorEm
For the ones that will never return


Chorus:

  G+G             D MajorD
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
   E minorEm             C majorC
As I watched them come over the hill
G+G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
    E minorEm        C majorC
Such a great number lay still


   A minorAm
Those that have fallen, come when I call them
  E MajorE
And answer the best that they can
  A minorAm
But all they can see is what they used to be
      E minorEm
And that's all that they understand


Chorus: x2

  G+G             D MajorD
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
   E minorEm             C majorC
As I watched them come over the hill
G+G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
    E minorEm        C majorC
