SteelDrivers - Sticks That Made Thunder
Capo 2
Am
My roots are deeper than the bones than the others
E
My colors that change with the sun
Am
My branches we're higher than anything on the hillside
Em
On the day that I watched them all come
Am
Some wear the color of the sky in the winter
E
Some, were as blue as the night
Am
They came like a storm with the light of the morn
Em
And they fell through the whole day and night
Chorus:
G D
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
Em C
As I watched them come over the hill
G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
Em C
Such a great number lay still
Am
When the light came again there was death on the wind
E
As the buzzards made way for the worms
Am
And the little white trees that don't bend in the breeze
Em
For the ones that will never return
Chorus:
G D
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
Em C
As I watched them come over the hill
G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
Em C
Such a great number lay still
Am
Those that have fallen, come when I call them
E
And answer the best that they can
Am
But all they can see is what they used to be
Em
And that's all that they understand
Chorus: x2
G D
The colors flew high and they danced in the sky
Em C
As I watched them come over the hill
G
Then to my wonder sticks that made thunder
Em C
Such a great number lay still
