Verse 1:
          B           B/D#       E
I've been through the drought of summer
         F#     G#m
Weathered winter snow
F#       B           E             F#        B
Winds of change have bent me, still, I never broke
          B/D# E                         F#     G#m
I've been set down by the river, anchored by the shore
F#     B            E
I drink deep of the water
                     F#        B
'Cause my strength is from the Lord

Pre-Chorus:
   B       B/D# E
So let the rain fall, let the wind blow
        F#        G#m                       F# B E
The more that comes down, the stronger I grow

Chorus:
         B    B/D#       E
I've got roots, I've got roots
                F#      G#m
And I'm standing on the truth
        F#   B        E
And it's You, and it's You
           F#  B
I'm holding on to, holding on to
    B/D# E                     F#       G#m
Deep down in the ground, firmly planted, safe and sound
     F#    B  E         F# B
And I can't be moved, in You, (oh) I've got roots

Verse 2:
  B     B/D#     E                    F#        G#m
I live above the surface, I can't see under the earth
        F#         B       E
But the fruit that I'll be reaping
                F#          B
Starts its life beneath the dirt
             B/D#    E                       F#   G#m
So I hang on to Your promise that there will be a harvest
       F#      B      E
'Cause You are always faithful
           F#       B
You finish what You started

                F#      G#m
And I'm standing on the truth
        F#   B        E
And it's You, and it's You
           F#  B
I'm holding on to, holding on to
    B/D# E                     F#       G#m
Deep down in the ground, firmly planted, safe and sound
     F#    B  E         F# B
And I can't be moved, in You, (oh) I've got roots

 Standing on the truth of Salvation
      B        E
And I won't be shaken
