7  6     7   7     7 -8  -7
I am thinking it's a sign
   6     6    -7   -7  -7   7    -6
That the freckles in our eyes
  6    -5 -5  -5 -5 -5  -5    -5
Are mirror images and when
 -5   -5      -5     -5  5  -4     4   7      
We kiss they're perfectly aligned

            7    7    7 -8  -7
And I have to speculate
   6     -7    -7  -7    7     -6
That God himself did make
 6  -5 -5  -5 -5  -5   -5      -5
Us into corresponding shapes
  -5    -5 -5    -5  5     -4    4     4
Like puzzle pieces from the clay

         7     6     7      7     7  -8     -7
And true, it may seem like a stretch,
  6    6      -7       -7    -7    7      -6
But its thoughts like this that catch
 6      -5  -5     -5     -5      -5     -5 -5
My troubled head when you're away
   -5  -5 -5    -5   5   -4   4     4
When I am missing you to death

           7     6    7      7     7   -8    -7
When you are out there on the road
  6    -7  -7      -7    7     -6
For several weeks of shows
  6      -5    -5    -5    -5  -5 -5 -5,
And when you scan the   radio,
-5   -5    -5    -5     5     -4     4      4
 I hope this song will guide you home

(Chorus)
   6      6    6   6    6   5     6      -6      6        6,
They will see us waving from such great heights,
    -6       7      -5       -5      5
"Come down now," they'll say
  4    6   6   6       6      6   5      6    -6   6  6,
But everything looks perfect from far away,
    -6       7      -5     -5     -6   5 4
"Come down now," but we'll stay...

7   7     7     7   -8    -7
I tried my best to leave
   6   -7  -7   -7     7   -6
This all on your machine
  6    -5  -5 -5  -5     -5   -5   -5  -5    -5
But the persistent beat it sounded thin
-5 -5    -5 5 -4
Upon listening

  4      7      7  7     7   -8  -7.
And that frankly will not fly.
  6      6    -7   -7     -7  7     -6
You will hear the shrillest highs
  6    -5 -5     -5     -5   -5     -5  -5     -5
And lowest lows with the windows down
   -5     -5  -5  -5   5    -4     4
When this is guiding you home

(Chorus) x3
