Em C/G You're such a heavy bird G C/G You'd never get far on your own G C/G You'll never have a use for your feathers G C/G While you're hopping down the road Em C/G You were born to walk the earth G C/G With your back against the cold Em And no you never had a purpose C/G G C/G Till I wore you on my back like a coat G C/G You're in your evening gloves G C/G You're off the farm taking big city drugs D No matter how far you get, let it sink in C/G D G C/G That I gave you roots and baby I gave you wings G C/G Yeah I gave you roots and I gave you wings
[Verse 2]
Em C/G And I showed you how to swing G C/G I showed you how to strut G That's my mojo you're using C/G Em C/G That's my wine getting you drunk Em C/G Was I that broke you in G C/G I got you clean, clipped and cut Em C/G You're a mule among horses, I took you G C/G When God stood you up G C/G Now tell me who could do more G C/G Set myself on fire keeping you warm D And now I'm off the hook and he's on your chin C/G D G C/G But I gave you roots, yeah baby I gave you wings G C/G Know I gave you roots and I gave you wings
