Verse 1:

G     F    C               D
Seems like you and me are stuck together

G     F          C            D
Feels like we've never been apart

G     F    C                  D
Seems like you are my skin of supple leather

G     F         C                      D
Seems like your blood pumps through my heart

G     F    C              D
Seems like you and me are one another

G     F       C             D 
Feels like we couldn't be un-joined

G     F      C               D
Seems like I am your sister, you're my brother

G     F      C                D
Feels like a phrase yet to be coined


Bridge:

G            C                 F           D
But maybe we find a thing that cannot be ignored

G                          C           F               D
That will leave a standing naked on a stranger's iron shore


Verse 2:

G / F / C / D (like 1st)

Seems like I am to you a vital organ
Feels like you are to me the air
Seems like without your night I'd have no morning
Feels like you'll always want me here


Bridge:

But maybe there's something that could never be foreseen
A fragile thing that rusts inside our finely honed machine


Chorus:

C      D       G              F
Ohooooooooo If we should ever be untethered

C      D       G                 Em
Ohooooooooo If somehow we should end

C      D       G               F
Ohooooooooo If we could not go on together

C      D       G               Em               D
Ohooooooooo Apart you'd be my good and trusting friend


Verse 3:

G / F / C / D

Seems like a letter written to a cover
Feels like a note I'll never send
