Artist: Sara Bareilles
[C]If I build it out of blood and [F]bone
[Am]If I love it and I even g[G]ive it a good name
[C]and I let it stand up on its o[F]wn
[Am]and if I even never learn to [G]trust and walk away
[C]Will it crumble on its o[F]wn two feet
[Am]Or will it multiply and [G]grow big white wings
[C]If I love it and I give it [F]life
[Am]Can I let it go and know that [G]it was never mine
[CHORUS]
[C]Give more, give it a[F]ll away
[Dm]I'm sure it'll [G]come back someday
[C]You gotta let go to let it [F]circle back around
[Dm]To rise up, you gotta [G]learn to root down
[C] [F]I.[Dm] ... [G]learned to root down.
[C] [F]I.[Dm] .. [G]
[C]If I cut it with a heart-shaped [F]knife
[Am]and I send it to my very [G]closest of friends
[C]and they somehow bring it back to [F]life
[Am]what if I only ever do it [G]all over again
[C]I'm a writer here upon this [F]ship
[Am]on a sea of unnamed and [G]untamed passages
[C]Every vessel's meant for pou[F]ring out
[Am]and every bloom has to make [G]room to root down
[CHORUS]
[C]Give more, give it a[F]ll away
[Dm]I'm sure it'll [G]come back someday
[C]You gotta let go to let it [F]circle back around
[Dm]To rise up, you gotta [G]learn to root down
[C] [F]I.[Dm] ... [G]learned to root down.
[C] [F]I.[Dm] .. [G]
[C]Give more, give it a[F]ll away
[Dm]I'm sure it'll [G]come back someday
[C]You gotta let go to let it [F]circle back around
[Dm]To rise up, you gotta [G]learn to root down
