G D
I am thinking it's a sign
Am
That the freckles in our eyes
Are mirror images
C G
And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned.
G D
And I have to speculate
Am
That God Himself did make
C
Us into corresponding shapes
G
Like puzzle pieces from the clay.
G D
And true it may seem like a stretch
Am
But it's thoughts like this that catch
C
My troubled head when you're away
G
And when I am missing you to death.
G D
And when you are out there on the road
Am
For several weeks of shows
C
And when you scan the radio
G
I hope this song will guide you home.
G D
They will see us waving from such great heights
Am G
"Come down now" they'll say
G D
But everything looks perfect from far away
Am G
"Come down now" but we'll stay
G D
I tried my best to leave
Am
This all on your machine
C
But the persistent beat
G
It sounded thin upon the sending.
G D
And that frankly will not fly
Am
You'll hear the shrillest highs
C
And lowest lows with the windows down
G
And this is guiding you home.
