[Verse]
G# Fm F#
The old oak tree had roots so far down in the ground
G# Fm F#
I fell from it and hit the dirt without a sound
G# Fm F#
I dreamt at night of growing wings so I could fly
G# Fm F#
A# caterpillar to a moth before I die
G# Fm F#
I plodded through, ordinarily earthbound
G# Fm F#
I knew my feet could never leave the ground
G# Fm F#
I went about my way, unsteady and afraid
G# Fm F#
How could I know I was headed for this day?
[Chorus]
G# A#m G# C#
All the seconds And the minutes And the hours And the days
D D# F
And the weeks And the months And the years of my life
D# C F
It was all worth it, To be here now
F# G#
I'm a hummingbird Floatin' tree to tree
F# G# C#
I'm a hummingbird Beautiful and free
[Verse]
G# Fm F#
The old oak tree was dead; I had to cut it down
G# Fm F#
The sapling roots were new and sprouting through the ground
G# Fm F#
New worlds were taking shape, unseen and unknown
G# Fm F#
A# branch to rest upon A# place to call my own
G# Fm F#
Something had changed, and I'm not sure how or why
G# Fm F#
I wasn't dreaming, I was awake, I was alive
G# Fm F#
Gave up the ghost, he had nothing left to say
G# Fm F#
But it was him who brought me to this day
[Chorus]
G# A#m G# C#
All the seconds And the minutes And the hours And the days
D D# F
And the weeks And the months And the years of my life
D# C F
It was all worth it, To be here now
F# G#
I'm a hummingbird Floatin' tree to tree
F# G# C#
I'm a hummingbird Beautiful and free
