Verse :
C
I am not my family tree
F
These are different leaves, you know
Am
There are miles and miles between
G
My roots and what I'm tryin' to grow
C
I am not the slave they sold
F
Nor am I royalty
Am                 G
worn them both The finest coat,
              C
And rags that barely covered me

Chorus: 
            Am
But there's mercy in the soil
F
Mercy in the sun
C
Learnin' to forgive 
     G
What cannot be undone
Am 
What was meant to harm
      F
Can't harm you in the end
        C
Stepped out on a limb I thought my break
    G
But love said,
             Am    F
It will only bend
             C     G
It will only bend

Verse 
C
I am not my past mistakes
F
Labeled by some place in time
Am
Nor am I a trophy case
G
Tryin' to maintain my shine
C
I have dreamed a thousand dreams
F
Watch a grain in famine grow
Am
I am not my family tree
                 G   
I have branches of my own

Bridge: 
C                      G
Oh, Does fate resign us too?
                     Am            
Find shelter for our wounds
                     F
Beneath the battered roof of broken dreams
C                        G
Oh, But I will choose to stand 
                      Am
In the shadow of Your hand
                         F                      
And see what grows when grace has sown the seed

(Slow Down Strum ) Am

  F   C   G
Oh, oh, oh
                    Am
These are different leaves, you know
  F   C   G
Oh, oh, oh
