Uproot

Em            Bm 
There's a fig tree on my rooftop 
D               A 
This gardenless city's acting too tough

       D 
There's nothing I can do 
      A 
I'll simply have to bloom 
Em             Bm 
Far down below my capacity 
         D 
They won't water me 
      A 
I'm no priority 


   Em       Bm 
So I, I grow weeds 
          D 
To keep me company 
A               Em 
While I depend on the sky 
       Bm 
Begging for rain 
       D    A

Find two lovers, 
A 
then throw me away
