[Verse]

Em           C
  You were a child 

                 G               G/F#
Crawling on your knees toward him 

Em                C
  Making momma so proud 

                  G       G/F#        
But your voice is too loud 

Em                     C
  We like to watch you laughing 

          G            G/F#
Picking insects off of plants 

Em                C        G      G/F#
  No time to think of consequences

[Chorus] Control yourself Take only what you need from them A family of trees wanting to be haunted (x2) [Verse] The water is warm But it's sending me shivers A baby is born Crying out for attention Your memories fade Like looking through a fogged mirror Decisions to Decisions are made and not bought But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot I guess not [Chorus] Control yourself Take only what you need from them A family of trees wanting to be haunted (x2) Control yourself Take only what you need from them A family of trees wanting to be haunted (x3) A family of trees...
