[Intro]
D G Em A D
[Verse 1]
D G We chose the spot, we dug the hole Em A D We laid the maples in the ground to have and hold D G As autumn falls to winter sleep Em A We pray that somehow in the spring D The roots grow deep
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 And many years from now Gmaj7 Bm A Long after we are gone Em A These trees will spread their branches out D And bless the dawn
D G Em A D
[Verse 2]
D G He took a plane to Africa Em A He gathered up into his arms D An orphan son
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 So many years from now Gmaj7 Bm A Long after we are gone Em A This tree will spread its branches out Bm A And bless the dawn
[Bridge]
Gmaj7 So sit down and write that letter Bm Sign up and join the fight A Sink in to all that matters D Step out into the light Gmaj7 Let go of all that's passing Bm Lift up the least of these Em A Lean into something lasting D Planting trees
D G Em A D
[Verse 3]
D G She rises up as morning breaks Em A She moves among these rooms alone D Before we wake Bm G And her heart is so full; it overflows Em A D She waters us with love and the children grow
[Chorus]
Em So many years from now Bm Long after we are gone Em A These trees will spread their branches out Bm A And bless the dawn Em A These trees will spread their branches out D And bless someone
D G Em A D
