There is a house built out of stone

Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust

[Verso 2]
 
D A7 E
Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
Bm D9 A9(7M) E
There is a tree as old as me
D A7 E
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Bm D9 A7 E
Ground had arose and passed it's knees
D A E
By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
Bm D9 A7 E
I climbed the tree to see the world
D A7 E
When the gusts came around to blow me down
Bm D9 A9(7M) E
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
Bm D9 A9(7M) E
I held on as tightly as you held on me
