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 of plants
A
No time to think of consequences

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

The water is warm, but it's sending me shivers
A baby is born crying out for attention
The memories fade like looking through
a fogged mirror
Decision to decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot,
I guess not

Chorus - x2

Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees
