[Verse 1]

F#m           D
   You were a child
                 A               E
Crawling on your knees toward him
F#m                D
   Making momma so proud
A                        E      F#m     D
   But your voice is too loud
                 A             E
We like to watch you laughing
F#m                         D
   You pick the insects off plants
A                            E
   No time to think of consequences

[Chorus]

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

[Verse 2]

F#m              D
    The water is warm
                 A           E
But it's sending me shivers
F#m            D
     A baby is born
A                 E
   Crying out for attention
F#m          D
    Memories fade
                       A             E
Like looking through a fogged mirror
  F#m                     D
Decision to decisions are made and not bought
      A
But I thought 
              E
This wouldn't hurt a lot I guess not

[Chorus]

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted


[Chorus]

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees wanting to be haunted

F#m                 
   Control yourself
D                     A            E
   Take only what you need from it
F#m             D            A            E
    A family of trees|
