Am
[Verse 1]
Am Am E Am
God bless the grass that grows through the crack
E Am E Am
They roll the concrete over it to try and keep it back
C Am C Am
The concrete gets tired of what it has to do
F Am C Dm E
It breaks and it buckles and the grass grows through
Am E Am
And God bless the grass
[Verse 2]
Am Am E Am
God bless the truth that fights toward the sun
E Am E Am
They roll the lies over it and think that it is done
C Am C Am
It moves through the ground and reaches for the air
F Am C Dm E
And after a while it is growing everywhere
Am E Am
And God bless the grass
[Verse 3]
Am Am E Am
God bless the grass that grows through cement
E Am E Am
It's green and it's tender and it's easily bent
C Am C Am
But after a while it lifts up its head
F Am C Dm E
For the grass is living and the stone is dead
Am E Am
And God bless the grass
[Verse 4]
Am Am E Am
God bless the grass that's gentle and low
E Am E Am
Its roots they are deep and its will is to grow
C Am C Am
And God bless the truth, the friend of the poor
F Am C Dm E
And the wild grass growing at the poor man's door
Am E Am
And God bless the grass
