Windowless room, number 39,                holds an honest man with a thirsty mind.
          C   F  G        Am    G    F               G      C G
But there are no rivers inside these walls, and so he sings,

[Chorus]
F       C         G        Am    F           C               G       Am
Roaring brooks and cherry trees. This is the place my heart longs to be.
    F               C          G  C  G
The blossoms in the water call me.

[Verse 2]
C                     G6/B     Am          F               G              Am
His glossy shoes only hold him down.       They were never meant to cover ground.
       C    F    G       Am     G   F            G       C G
So he slips them off and frees his soul, then he goes to,

[Chorus]
F       C         G        Am    F           C               G       Am
Roaring brooks and cherry trees. This is the place my heart longs to be.
    F               C          G  C  G
The blossoms in the water call me.

[Bridge]
  Am                G  C      G          F                         G
Remember a mountaintop has no roof and a home in the wild needs no window.
Am          G               C        G        F        G   C   G
Leave your cage, break your chains. Roar your name and sing,

[Chorus]
N.C.
Roaring brooks and cherry trees. This is the place my heart longs to be.
The blossoms in the water call me.
F       C         G        Am    F           C               G       Am
Roaring brooks and cherry trees. This is the place my heart longs to be.
    F               C          G  C  G
The blossoms in the water call me.
