Eels is an American alternative/acoustic indie rock band formed by singer/songwriter Mark Oliver Everett, better known as "Mr. E" or simply E. Other members rotate frequently, both in the studio and on stage. Eels were officially founded in 1995 when Jonathan 'Butch' Norton and E met Tommy Walter. The name "Eels" was chosen so that the band's records would be close to E's solo records in an alphabetical ordering. In 1996 the band released their debut album Beautiful Freak.

[Intro] G GGEmF GGEmF
[Verse] GEmF The old oak tree had roots so far down in the ground GEmF I fell from it and hit the dirt without a sound GEmF I dreamt at night of growing wings so I could fly GEmF A caterpillar to a moth before I die GEmF I plodded through, ordinarily earthbound GEmF I knew my feet could never leave the ground GEmF I went about my way, unsteady and afraid GEmF How could I know I was headed for this day?
[Chorus] GAmGC All the seconds And the minutes And the hours And the days C#DE And the weeks And the months And the years of my life DBE It was all worth it, To be here now FG I'm a hummingbird Floatin' tree to tree FGC I'm a hummingbird Beautiful and free
[Verse] GEmF The old oak tree was dead; I had to cut it down GEmF The sapling roots were new and sprouting through the ground GEmF New worlds were taking shape, unseen and unknown GEmF A branch to rest upon A place to call my own GEmF Something had changed, and I'm not sure how or why GEmF I wasn't dreaming, I was awake, I was alive GEmF Gave up the ghost, he had nothing left to say GEmF But it was him who brought me to this day
[Chorus] GAmGC All the seconds And the minutes And the hours And the days C#DE And the weeks And the months And the years of my life DBE It was all worth it, To be here now FG I'm a hummingbird Floatin' tree to tree FGC I'm a hummingbird Beautiful and free
