Intro: 
D5 F5 A5 G5 
 

Verse 1: 
    G5     C5          E5           A5 
For seven years I've stood right here 
        D5           F5        G5 
And the flowers grow green by day 
G5           C5          E5     A5 
All for the yarns that I was told 
  D5        Bb5        D5        A5 
I spread my arms when they grew cold 
    D5     F5       C5 
And warded off the rain 
 
Chorus: 
    C5                    G5 
The bigger the tree, the deeper the root 
    F5                     C5 
The grass that is trodden underfoot 
        A5 
Give it time 
          D5     F5     C5 
And it'll surely rise again 
 

D5 F5 A5 G5 
 
Verse 2: 
I'm rocked by winds and I'm soaked by rains 
And I'll bow and sometimes bend 
Until I fall and crush the forms 
Of a few small friends who stood through storms 
And who will rise again 
 
(chorus) 
 
(guitar solo over verse and chorus chords) 
 
Verse 3: 
It's laughter? dust, the Derby's just 
Redo? it or be done 
Wild? to wind and wise to pain 
Wizard of the worldly game 
Treasoned into trust 
 
(chorus) 
 
(guitar solo over verse and chorus chords to fade) 
 
 
If anyone knows the real lyrics, especially the third verse, 
I would greatly appreciate someone sending them to me.
