Am B Em
Lord forgive them for they know not what they do

Em
Turned her inside out
B Em
my pa was the ( ? ) kept us all locked in the house
Am Em
my brothers and my sisters needed love so i ( ? ) come to me
F# B
Till i became the roots and fruits and the branches of my family tree

[chorus]

Em B D C#m
I'm coming ( ? ) and my heart froze like winter
Am Em
And my splinter ( ? )
Am B
Laid forgotten till they blossomed

[verse]

Em
And they will hang him out on a limb
Am Em
All those hopes and dreams just blowing in the wind

All my aunties and my uncles too
Am B Em
Said she'll be back and pregnant on her own in a month or two

[bridge]

Am Em
my mama kicked me out of the house on the day i turned 17
B Em
my daddy called me up and told me boxes of my stuff were sitting on the street
Am Em
Felt like i had the world on my shoulders but really it was at my feet
F# B
So i became the roots and fruits and the branches of my family tree

[chorus]

Em B D C#m
I'm coming ( ? ) and my heart froze like winter
Am Em
And my splinter ( ? )
Am B
Laid forgotten till they blossomed

Till it's outgrown my garden
C Em
How these years bleeding into
Bb B
I'm at peace ( ? )
