Intro: (F) (Dm) (Bb) (C) (F) x 2
A (F) momma watched her baby
(Dm) Fall and bump his head
(Gm) Takin' baby (C) steps across the (F) floor
She could've tried to catch him
But a (Dm) voice inside her said
In the (Gm) long run, it will (C) only hurt him (F) more
But, she (Gm) picked me up and told me that she (C) loved me
And she (Bb) held me and she made me feel sec(C)ure
I (Gm) grew to understand what real (C) love means
And (Bb) what it takes for two hearts to en(C)dure
Roots and (Bb) wings
To my (Gm) ship you are the (C) lighthouse on the (F) shore
And I'm kite (F/A) on your str(Bb)ing
(Gm) Your love is my (C) anchor in the (F) storm
And a (Bb) part of me stays grounded
So the (Dm) rest of me can (Gsus) fly (G)
Only cause (Bb) you are my
(C) Roots and (F) wings
[(F)] [(Dm)] [(Bb)] [(C)] [(F)]
A (F) daddy kissed his baby
(Dm) Then he fixed her veil
(Gm) Took her arm and (C) walked her down the (F) aisle
When the preacher asked him
"Who (Dm) gives this child away"
(Gm) He said "me" and (C) did his best to sm(F)ile
Now you (Gm) call him every weekend and you (C) tell him
That you (Bb) love him and your thankful as can (C) be
That his (Gm) firm hand as his soft heart were a bl(C)essing
And the (Bb) reason you can give the gift to (C) me
Of roots and (Bb) wings
To my (Gm) ship you are the (C) lighthouse on the (F) shore
And I'm kite (F/A) on your str(Bb)ing
(Gm) Your love is my (C) anchor in the (F) storm
And a (Bb) part of me stays grounded
So the (Dm) rest of me can (Gsus) fly (G)
Only cause (Bb) you are my
(C) Roots and (F) wings
(Bb) Some say love's a circle
(F) Some say love's a light
(Gm) Some say love's a river
(C) I don't know who's right
But, (Bb) this I know for certain
(F) This I know for truth
The (Gm) secret to forever
For (C) me and you...
Is roots and (Bb) wings
To my (Gm) ship you are the (C) lighthouse on the (F) shore
And I'm kite (F/A) on your str(Bb)ing
(Gm) Your love is my (C) anchor in the (F) storm
And a (Bb) part of me stays grounded
So the (Dm) rest of me can (Gsus) fly (G)
Only cause (Bb) you are my
(C) Roots and (F) wings
I'm luck that (Gm) you are my
(no chord) Roots and (F) wings
Fade out...
