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