By the Boab Tree

(G)Sing, and I will hear you,

no matter where you are.

A (Em7)song to light the darkest night and (Am7)guide me from afar.

(D)And (G)I will (C)never be alone.

(D7)Now I (D)know you're somewhere.

You're ev'rywhere to me,

a whisper on the (Csus2)breeze, the earth beneath my feet.

(D6)And (Am7)when the (G)rain falls down,

you tell a (Em7)story,

(D)and I will (Csus2)hear you,

(C6)always (G)near you,

(D6)by the (Am7)boab (G)tree.

(C)The (G)land will hold its secrets to whisper on the wind.

The (Em7)rain will fall, the grass grow green,

and (Am7)life begins again.

(D)And (G)I will (C)never be afraid.

(D7)Now I (D)know you're somewhere.

You're ev'rywhere to me.

(D7)You're the (C)color in the sky,

and you're the (G)earth beneath my feet.

(D7)And when the (G)rain falls down,

you tell a (Em)story,

(D13sus)and (D7)I will (C)hear you, always (G)near you,

by the (D7)boab (G)tree.

(D7)Oh, you are somewhere;

you're (D)ev'rywhere to me.

(D7)You're the (C)color in the sky,

and you're the (G)earth beneath my feet.

(D7)And when the (G)rain falls down,

you tell a (Em)story,

(D13sus)and (D7)I will (C)hear you, always (G)near you,

by the (D7)boab (G)tree.

(D7)Oh, you are somewhere;

you're (D)ev'rywhere to me.

(D7)You're the (G5)tree.
