E D A
[Verse 1]
C#m C+
Walking on the wire
E/B F#/A#
And all the while aspiring
A E
To keep my level eye from looking down
C#m C+
Your beauty in the fore
E/B F#/A#
A new unfolding story arc
A E
Denouement I could keep rolling toward
[Pre-chorus 1]
Bsus4
But if you won’t commit to the expedition
A
I could go alone on a solo mission
Bsus4
Never seen a heart in a worse condition
A
Pinning all my hopes to the wrong pincushion
Bsus4 B
But if you want to try we could leave it all tonight
C#m A
We could be aglow in the streetlight
[Chorus 1]
E D A
Running down the road to jog the memory
E D A
Like tit for tat, that is you for me
E D A
And it’s quite a cost but nothing comes for free
E D A
But when you know you know you know, it’s meant to be
F#m A
Meant to be
[Interlude]
E D A
E D A
[Verse 2]
C#m C+
It takes all of my restraint
E/B F#/A#
Not climbing in your cranium
A E
To observe the way the furniture’s arranged
C#m C+
Scratching at the door
E/B F#/A#
They’re gonna call security
A E
So I can’t creep around here anymore
[Pre-chorus 2]
Bsus4
But I can see a way to a new horizon
A
Squinting through the clouds ’til it burns my eyes and
Bsus4
Every other star is a sun that’s rising
A
And every other word I’m apologising
Bsus4
But I just want to know is this where you want to go?
A
You and me aglow in the cosmos
[Chorus 2]
E D A
Running down the road to jog the memory
E D A
Like tit for tat, that is you for me
E D A
And it’s quite a cost but nothing comes for free
E D
But when you know you know you know
A
It’s meant to be
F#m A
Meant to be
[Interlude]

[Chorus 3]
E D A
Running down the road to jog the memory
E D A
Like tit for tat, that is you for me
E D A
And it’s quite a cost but nothing comes for free
E D
But when you know you know you know
A
It’s meant to be
[Chorus 4]
E D A
And all morning I’ve been crying in the rain
E D A
This theatre I’ve been trying to contain
E D A
Yeah, it all could fall apart eventually
E D A
But when you know you know you know you know…
[Outro]

F#m A E
Meant to be
