Intro: C

Verse:
C
i breathe stories
C
i breathe them in and out
        F                                              G 
there’s nothing like the witness of a world that’s being born
         C
i breathe stories
C
my lungs are filled with pirate ships
     F                                G 
and towers built, and towers falling down

Chorus:
        F
i speak rivers into motion
        C
i raise mountains with abandon
        G 
i write cities sprawling over land
        Am7
and people to complete them
         F                       C
i tell stories of my family in a world that i have written
          G 
and my family breathes my stories
           (nc)                         C
my love is etched in continents and seas

Verse:
C
we are stories
C
beginnings, middles, ends
      F                              G 
our power lies in living lives that touch a life or two
        C
we are stories
                                       F
our families have grown to hold the lives
    (nc)
that touch the lives
                G                 G
that touch the lives that we do

Chords:
       F
we are poetry in motion
        C
and our words give life to action
         G 
in this world we’ve built on games of chance
    Am7
and hours of introspection
        F
let our stories turn to tidal waves
       C
that sweep our families home again
     G 
and maps are etched in memories
    (nc)
and melodies
                      C
and who we want to be

Verse:
C
i breathe stories
C
i breathe them in and out
       F                                G 
and stories stitched together are how families are born
        C
we are stories
                                       F
our lives are built on weaving all our stories
                           G  G
into worlds we call our own

Chorus:
        F
we are power, we’re devotion
          C
love each other with abandon
        G 
we are rivers, mountains, cities
         Am7
and the tapestry that holds them
     F
my heart is in the brushstrokes
         C
of the world that i have written
          G 
and my family breathes my stories
         (nc)
my love is etched in continents and seas
