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