Em D Am Em
In the sticks down an old dirt road near a small Kentucky town
D Am Em
When his daddy would come home
D Am Em
Out past the old red barn in a sycamore tree
D C Am
It Is where little Zach would go
D Am
And high above the guilt and pain
C D
The only place that he was safe
G D Am C
Was high above in the strong arms of the sycamore tree
G D Am C
You could hear a small voice in the wind
G D Am C
Sayin', "Please don't let him do that to me"
G D Am C
Prayin' to be born again
Em D Am Em
In the sycamore tree
D Am Em
Time went on as it always does, and his daddy's time had come
D Am Em
How he felt was hard to say
D Am Em
He often wondered how he'd ever make it through
D C Am
But as they buried him that day
D Am
He realized it's not my fault
C D
And as the leaves began to fall
G D Am C
From high above in the strong arms of the sycamore tree
G D Am C
You could hear forgiveness in the wind
G D Am C
Singin' out, "Find the truth and the truth will set you free"
G D Am C
Broken chains and a heart on the mend
Em D Am
'Neath the sycamore tree, oh
Em D C Am
D Am
And like an answer to his praying
C D
As he watched his child playing
n.c
High above in the strong arms of the sycamore tree
You could hear a small voice in the wind
Sayin', "Please Daddy won't you come and play with me"
In the sycamore tree
G D Am C
The sycamore tree
G D Am C Repeat till end...end on Em
Forgiveness will set you free
Forgiveness, forgiveness
Forgiveness will set you free
Forgiveness, forgiveness
