Back To My Roots Chords

[Intro]
Am      Em      Am      Em
Am      Em/B    Am G F E7
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am       Em             G
   Memories pass before my eyes
        F   E7       Am          Em
To realise they’re going nowhere
Am                     Em/B
   We’re all born to a line
                     G                 F
To progress with the time, we can’t define
        E7       C7         Emadd9             C7    G6add9   B7
And never two of us can share (Let me take you there…)
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                           Am7
   Somewhere there’s a solace, we all seek
G             F               E            E    E7
   A sense of silence for the too tired to speak
Am                              E
   Reach on out ahead through a world long since dead
         F                      G   E
Into the wide-open arms of solitude
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
        Am          Em            Am                    Em
Take me back to my roots, take me back, take me back...
 
 
[Verse 2]
       Am  Em/B       Am
It’s a day to take or lose
            G F E7           Am            Em
Not be accused... of holding off the chase
           Am              Em/B
Although I can’t slow down time
           G               F    E7
Be sure to find a piece of mind
        C7        Emadd9           C7       G6add9   B7
Once in my embrace (I know a happy place…)
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                           Am7
   Somewhere there’s a solace, we all seek
G             F               E            E    E7
   A sense of silence for the too tired to speak
Am                              E
   Reach on out ahead through a world long since dead
         F                      G
Into the wide-open arms of solitude
                   E7
Got to take me back
 
 
[Interlude]
Am      Em/B    Am G F E7
C7      Emadd9   C7   G6add9   B7
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                           Am7
   Somewhere there’s a solace, we all seek
G             F               E            E    E7
   A sense of silence for the too tired to speak
Am                              E
   Reach on out ahead through a world long since dead
         F                      G
Into the wide-open arms of solitude
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
        Am            Em
Take me back to my roots
        Am                              Em         F    G
Take me back, take me back, take me back… to my roots...
