[Intro]
| E – Esus4 | x4

[Verse 1]
E – Esus4 | E – Esus4
I am a tall tree
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4
I weep like willow
| B | B |
My scars are hiding
| E – Esus4| E – Esus4
My branches don’t show

[Verse 2]
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4 |
Cause I am a tall tree
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4 |
Roots like a newborn
| B | B |
No wind is blowing
| E – Esus4| E – Esus4 |
And over I go

[Pre-chorus]
| C#m – B |
And all I see is storm clouds
| E – Esus4 |
Up in the distance
| C#m – B |
A terrible omen
| E – Esus4|
A beautiful show

[Chorus]
| E – Esus4 |
So take me down easy
| E – Esus4 |
Take me down easy
| B |
Let me land softly
| E – Esus4 |
Back in your arms

[Verse 3]
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4|
Cause I can be childish sometimes
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4|
Seem optimistically kind
| B | B |
But that’s cause I can’t go
| E – Esus4 | E – Esus4 |
Back down in that hole

[Pre-chorus]
| C#m – B |
Cause there is no sunlight

Just ask my mother
| C#m – B |
I treated myself hard
| E – Esus4|
I crumbled and fold

So take me down easy

Take me down easy

Let me land softly

Back in your arms

[Verse 4]
| E – Esus4|
Cause I can sing sad songs
| E – Esus4 |
It’s easy to find them
| E – Esus4 |
The worst kind of heartbreak
| E – Esus4|
Will leave you alone

[Chorus]
| E – Esus4 |
So take me down easy
| E – Esus4 |
Take me down easy
| B |
Let me land softly
| E – Esus4 |
Back in your arms
