LOVE'S RECOVERY (Emily Saliers)
-------------------------------
[Tune 6th string (low E) down to D.]
[Actually in F, so capo up 3 frets.]
[Feel free to simplify some of the chords; e.g., play Gmaj13 as G6 or GM7.]
[Each chord is one measure, with these exceptions: Chords joined by hyphens
 are one measure _total_; the (D)'s at the end of the choruses only last
 about one quarter-note, and the chords on the very last line have timing
 markers underneath them.]

There I am in younger days, stargazing, painting picture perfect maps
Of how my life and love should be
Not counting the unmarked paths of misdirection, my compass, faith in
   love's perfection
I missed ten million miles of road I should've seen

Meanwhile our friends we thought were so together
Left each other one by one on the road to fairer weather
And we sit here in our storm and drink a toast

Oh how I wish I were a trinity, so if I lost a part of me
I'd still have two of the same to live
But nobody gets a lifetime rehearsal; as specks of dust, we're universal
To let this love survive would be the greatest gift that we could give

Tell all the friends who think they're do together
That these are ghosts and mirages, all these thoughts of fairer weather
Though it's storming out, I feel safe within the
