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