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