Capo 6

C   G   F   C   G

C                     G
I am thinking it's a sign
                          F
That the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
C                         G
And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned

    C               G    
And I have to speculate
                      F
That God Himself did make
                        C
Us into corresponding shapes
             G         
Like puzzle pieces from the clay

      C                         G
And true, it may seem like a stretch
                                  F
But it's thoughts like this that catch
                               C
My troubled head when you're away
           G
When I am missing you to death

C                              G
When you are out there on the road
                       F
For several weeks of shows
                          C
And when you scan the radio
             G
I hope this song will guide you home

C                             G
They will see us waving from such great heights
      F                 C   G
Come down now, they'll sayyyyy

C                                  G
But everything looks perfect from far away
      F                    C   G
Come down now, but we'll stayyyyy
                    
C                   G
I tried my best to leave
                  F
This all on your machine

But the persistent beat
C                G    
It sounded thin upon listening

C                          G
And that frankly will not fly
                           F
You'll hear the shrillest highs
                             C         
And lowest lows with the windows down
      G
And this is guiding you home

C                             G
They will see us waving from such great heights
      F                 C   G
Come down now, they'll sayyyyy

C                                  G
But everything looks perfect from far away
      F                    C   G
Come down now, but we'll stayyyyy

C   G   F   C   G   C

How to practise this song

  1. 1

    Put your capo on fret 6

    Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.

  2. 2

    Practise the barre chord F

    F is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.

    Open
  3. 3

    Practise the change: F ↔ C

    Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

    Open
  4. 4

    Great first song

    Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
