    Verse 1
    Bring 
    me 
    back 
    to 

    the 
    time 
    again 
    when 
    the fire 
    is 
    wild 
    and 
    the summer's 
    red 

    And 
    you 
    walk 
    through 
    weeds 

    just 
    to make 
    a garden 

    We 
    loved 
    too 
    much 
    and 
    we 
    loved 
    too 
    hard 

    And 
    it 
    went 
    too 
    fast 
    and 
    I 

    went 
    too 
    far 

    Nothing 
    could 
    have stopped 

    me 
    back 
    then 

    Verse 2

    And I'm 
    back 
    to 
    my childhood 

    I 
    can't 
    believe 

    I 
    was 
    run
    ning 

    But 
    wasn't 
    run
    ning 
    from 
    anything, 

    any
    thing 
    yet. 

    Well, 
    the 
    Verse 3
    root 
    still 
    grows 
    in 

    the 
    concrete 
    fine 

    And 
    you 
    never 
    think 
    you'll 

    run 
    out 
    of 
    time 

    The 
    root 
    still 
    grows 

    least that's what 
    I'm 
    told 

    Though 
    the 
    tree 
    is 
    scared 
    of 

    height
    s. 


    Verse 4
    Don't 
    look 
    down 
    it's 
    been 
    15 years 

    How 
    did 
    I get 
    so 
    far 
    from 
    what 
    I 
    hold 
    dear 

    But 
    I didn't 
    think 
    I 
    would 
    need 

    to think 
    much 

    The 
    air 
    this 
    high 
    makes 
    it 
    hard 
    to 
    breathe 

    And 
    all 
    I 
    wanted 
    was 
    something 

    I 
    could 
    believe 
    in 

    Now I 
    be
    lieve 
    that 
    when 
    you're 
    leav

    in 
    me 
    you're 
    still 
    here 

    Verse 5

    And 
    the 
    grass 
    will 
    be scorched 

    in the 
    summer's 
    sting 

    And 
    we'll 
    dance 
    there, 
    like 
    it's 
    not 
    seeing 
    anything, 

    any
    thing 
    yet.. 

    And 
    the 
    root 
    still 
    grows 
    in 

    the 
    concrete 
    fine 

    And 
    you 
    never 
    think 
    you'll 

    run 
    out 
    of 
    time 

    The 
    root 
    still 
    grows 
    further 
    than 
    I 
    know 

    Though 
    the 
    tree 
    is 
    scared 
    of 
    height
    s 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 6
    Well I 
    still 
    wait 
    for 
    anyone 

    to keep 
    their 
    word
    s 

    It's 
    like 
    try
    ing 
    to start 
    a fire 

    that 
    could 
    not 
    be 
    burned 

    So 
    if 
    you 
    wanna 
    cut 
    me 
    down 

    you 
    better 
    aim 
    low 

    And 
    you 
    look 
    at 
    me 
    like 
    I 

    should've 
    pleased 
    ya 

    And 
    you 
    look 
    at 
    me 
    like 
    I 

    still 
    should 
    need 
    ya 

    And 
    I need 
    too 
    much, 

    you need 
    to 
    much 
    to 
    need 
    this 

    To 
    need 
    this 
    Verse 7

    To 
    need 
    this 

    To 
    need 
    this 
    wooa
    woooooa 

    To 
    need 
    this 
    Verse 8

    To 
    need 
    this 

    To 
    need 
    this 
    wooa wooooa 

    To 
    need 
    this 
    Verse 9

    To 
    need 
    this 
    to need 
    this? 

    Verse 10
    And 
    the 
    root 
    still 
    grows 
    in 

    the 
    concrete 
    fine 

    And 
    we never 
    think 
    we'll 

    run 
    out 
    of time 

    Verse 11
    And 
    the 
    root 
    still 
    goes 

    further 
    than 
    you 
    know 

    The 
    root 
    still 
    goes 
    further 
    than 
    you 
    know 

    Verse 12
    The 
    root 
    still 
    grows 
    least 
    that's 

    what 
    I'm 
    told 

    Though the tree 
    is scared 

    of heights 

    Hmm. Eh hey. 

    Hmm. Eh hey.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
