[Verse 1]
D G D Grab your heart we need to leave G D There's no time to cry or grieve A For the fallen family tree D G D Rise above the flooding plain G D Crouching low to duck the flame A Generations against the grain D Up in smoke and down the drain G D Narrow pass and gaining speed G D A judgement lapse is all we need A To make the treachery complete D G D Fire from the mountainside G D Floods below not far behind A We rise we work, we fall we swim D Best to let the water in
[Pre-Chorus]
G D If the fire, if the flood G D Burns the tree and thins the blood A If your tears don't want to dry
[Chorus]
D G I can help you cry D Through the night G D Through the night and day A I can't take your pain away D But I can help you cry
[Verse 2]
G D Returning prodigals and home G D Learning all there is to know A About reaping what you sow D G D S O S with dot and dash G D Morse code, the fire and ash A What we have will have to do D To work the ground and start anew G D We'll cut the branch from this tree G D Carve a place for you and me A A wooden seat that we can string D From a branch where we can swing G D We'll take this block of wood G D Carve it down and sand it good A When finished it will be D A souvenir of the family tree
[Pre-Chorus]
G D And if the fire, if the flood G D Burns the tree and thins the blood A If your tears don't wanna dry
[Chorus]
D G I can help you cry D Through the night G D Through the night and day A I can't take your pain away D G But I can help you cry D Through the night G D Through the night and day A I can't take your pain away
I can try but
[Bridge]
F C G God help me please F C G Come save the family tree F C G My friends I broke them all F C G When falling off the wall
[Verse 3]
D G D In the ash I found an ember G D Something warm to help remember A A block of wood that used to be D A strong tall family tree A A strong tall family tree N.C. D Blowing in the breeze
[Chorus]
G D Cry through the night G D Through the night and day A I can't take your pain away D G But I can help you cry D Through the night G D Through the night and day A I can't take your pain away D But I can help you cry
