[Verse 1]
Bm A6
They say if you want peace, all you got to do is plant a tree.
G7 Em7 F#m
It shows a world that's not so bad, and love is only a matter of time.
Bm A6
And all the mountains lead to your door,
G7 Em7 F#m
I climb with ruffled shoes upon this ocean floor.
[Chorus]
Bm A6
The secret lies in the music,
G7 Em7 F#m
where every dream, every footprint, paves a path to travel on.
Bm A6
But if love, if love is all there ever was,
G7 Em7 F#m
why am I still so alone in a world that seems so small?
Bm
I fall away.
[Verse 2]
Bm A6
So I walk and climb a mountain
G7 Em7 F#m
that releases me from worry, that would otherwise hold me back.
Bm A6
The explanation is in the silence,
G7 Em7 F#m
where it's you I fall in love with.
[Chorus]
Bm A6
The secret lies in the music,
G7 Em7 F#m
where every dream, every footprint, paves a path to travel on.
Bm A6
But if love, if love is all there ever was,
G7 Em7 F#m
why am I still so alone in a world that seems so small?
Bm
I fall away.
[Verse 3]
Bm A6
Music can be a lover,
G7 Em7 F#m
a guide that guides us on the path we're traveling on.
Bm A6
If I had a story, I would tell it.
G7 Em7 F#m
It would be about how you have got it all.
Bm A6
So I walk down the path I'm on.
G7 Em7 F#m
And at the end all that surrounds me are thoughts of you.
Bm A6
So I cherish, and bow down,
G7 Em7 F#m
because the essence, you said, is we're eternal now.
Bm A6
So I write, write it all down.
G7 Em F#m
Because you said, if life's forever, than I'll be with you when you fall.
Bm
Where there are pictures
A6 G7 Em7 F#m
that hold the best of long lost memories that have been washed away.
Bm A6
But the spirit, it lives on.
G7 Em7 F#m
And at the bottom of a tree, you'll find a crumbling song.
Bm A6
You see the rocks. You see the paint.
G7 Em7 F#m
You feel that one you may have lost is still with you along the way.
Bm A6
You see I tried to sweat it all out.
G7 Em7 F#m
Now a tree has been planted, and your memory lives on.
