[C] She [G]
[Am] [C] [Dm] [C]
still remembers the way her heart broke
[Am] On the day [Em] that she watched him [F] drive away
[C]
How the tears fell and how [G] the wind [C] blew
And tore the branches from a tree near the driveway
[G] And [Bb] she didn't think she'd make it through [F] the day
Sometimes [Dm] all she could think to do [G] is pray
That God [C] would tend [F] the broken branches of [C] this [G] tree
So as [C] the years went by [F] her children still [C] would [G] sing
That [Bb] their love is [F] a circle [C] even with this missing [F] piece
[C] If God [Dm] would tend the broken branches [C] [G] of this [C] family [F] tree
And [G]
[C] as the years passed that [F] tree would hold strong
[Am] Through every [C] rainstorm it proved that it [F] would stay
[C] [G] Through [C] all the teardrops and [F] all the ball games
[C] And all the every other weekends [F] when the kids would go [G] away
[Cm] [Bb] Cause she knows that their daddy loves [F] them too
She [C] prays [Dm] for strength to face [C] the changes
[F] That they've all been going [G] through
And [C] God tends the [Am] broken branches of [C] this tree
[G]
He keeps [C] his watchful eye [F] on every tiny [C] leaf
[G] And [Bb] their love is [F] a circle in [C] ways that only God [F] can see
[C] As [Dm] he tends the broken branches [C] [F] of [G] this family [C] tree
And in [Dm] the end I don't know [F] how it [C] will all be sorted out
[F] All I know is that the circle [G] won't be broken
There [Eb] will be hands to hold, there will be [Ab] a love [Bb] unfamed
And it [Ab] will bridge the [Fm] gaps between all the [G] things we can't explain
[F]
But in [C] the [G] meantime God [C] will tend the [F] broken branches [G] of the trees
And [C] as eternity [F] goes on this will [G] be
Because [Bb] our love is [F] a circle in this [C] human [F] family
[C] And God [Dm] can mend the broken branches
[C] He [F] will tend the broken branches
[G] [Am] Because he loves all [G] the branches [C] [F] of [C] his family tree
[Dm] Thank [G]
[Am] [C] [Dm] [C]
[G] [C]
you
