Verse 1: 

C                    F        Am 
You don't have to say a word 
       G 
to speak to me 
C                    F          Am 
You don't have to know what hurts 
     G 
to heal me 
F 
Maybe that's the thing 
Dm 
Maybe that's the thing 


Verse 2:
 
C                  F        Am 
I don't have to move my feet 
       G 
to dance with you 
C                  F        Am 
You don't have to look to see 
           G 
that my love is true

Maybe that's the thing 


 
F                    Dm          C 
Easy like a day goes by, you and I 
              C/B          C/E  F 
Getting on our way like a lullaby 
       Dm                      Am              
Like a steady rain when the ground is dry 
             Am/Bb  Dm                          C  F  Am  G (2x) 
Every time we tou - ch, that's the thing about us 


Verse 3: Same as Verse 1:  C  F  Am  G (2x)  F  Dm 

I don't need no crystal ball 
To keep my faith 
And I think we're both better off 
With a little mystery 
Maybe that's the thing 
Maybe that's the thing 


Verse 4: Same as Verse 1:  C  F  Am  G (2x)  F  Dm 

I don't have to hold your hand 
To feel you there 
We don't really have a plan 
But I'm not scared 
Maybe that's the thing 
Maybe that's the thing 

 
F                    Dm          C 
Easy like a day goes by, you and I 
              C/B          C/E  F 
Getting on our way like a lullaby 
       Dm                      Am              
Like a steady rain when the ground is dry 
             Am/Bb  Dm                          C  F  Am  G (2x) 
Every time we tou - ch, that's the thing about us

That's the thing about us 
That's the thing, that's the thing about us
