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
