G5                    D5
I am thinking it's a sign
                A5
That the freckles in our eyes

Are mirror images
      C5                              G5
And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned.


G5               D5
And I have to speculate
                    A5
That God Himself did make
               C5
Us into corresponding shapes
                   G5
Like puzzle pieces from the clay.


G5                        D5
And true it may seem like a stretch
                             A5
But it's thoughts like this that catch
                             C5
My troubled head when you're away
                               G5
And when I am missing you to death.


G5                                  D5
And when you are out there on the road
                       A5
For several weeks of shows
                       C5
And when you scan the radio
                                 G5
I hope this song will guide you home.

REFR?O


G5                                         D5
They will see us waving from such great heights
       A5                G5
"Come down now" they'll say
G5                                      D5
But everything looks perfect from far away
       A5                 G5
"Come down now" but we'll stay


G5                    D5
I tried my best to leave
                   A5
This all on your machine
                    C5
But the persistent beat
                            G5
It sounded thin upon the sending.


G5                          D5
And that frankly will not fly
                           A5
You'll hear the shrillest highs
                                  C5
And lowest lows with the windows down
                         G5
And this is guiding you home.
