C               Em          F                C
Branches in the wind, still standin’ here together.
F                 C                    D        G
One more storm to weather, we’ll get through it yet.
C                 Em             F         C
So we’re gathered here, holdin’ on to each other.
F               C             G      C
To let go of another one, we won’t forget.


                Am       Em     F          C
[Refr.:] Now as we say goodbye, to one of our own.
F          C                D     G
We may be lonely, but we’re not alone.
            Am       Em              F          C
Though the leaves will fall, and the tears will flow.
Dm            G            Am G        F                G     C
May it always comfort us to know, the family tree will always grow.


[Intro:]


C               Em  F         C
Father down to son, mother to daughter,
F             C            D        G
Thicker than water, we are made of this.
C                 Em    F            C
From the earth we rise, to the earth returnin’.
       F            C                 G         C
We’ll keep a candle burnin’, for the ones we’ll miss.


               Am       Em     F          C
[Refr.:] Now as we say goodbye, to one of our own.
F          C                D     G
We may be lonely, but we’re not alone.
            Am       Em              F          C
Though the leaves will fall, and the tears will flow.
Dm            G            Am G        F                G     C
May it always comfort us to know, the family tree will always grow.
