Such Great Heights - The Postal Service

[Verse]
F Am
I am thinking it's a sign
Gm
that the freckles in our eyes
Bb
are mirror images and when we kiss
C F
they're perfectly aligned.
F Am
And I have to speculate that God
Gm
himself did make us into corresponding
Bb C F
shapes, like puzzle pieces from the clay.
F Am
And true, it may seem like a stretch, but it's
Gm
thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Bb C
head when you're away, when I am missing
F
you to death.
F Am
When you are out there on the road,
Gm
for several weeks of shows and when you
Bb D
scan the radio I hope this song will guide you home.
[Chorus]
F C
They will see us waving from such
Bb Dm
great heights come down now they'll say.
F C
But everything looks perfect from far away, come
Bb Dm C
down now, but we'll stay.
[Verse]
F Am
I, tried my best to leave this all on
Gm
your machine, but the persistant beat it
Bb C
sounded thin upon listening.
F Am
And that, frankly will not fly, you will
Gm
hear the shrillest highs and the lowest lows
Bb C
with the windows down when this is guiding you home.
[Chorus]
F C
They will see us waving from such
Bb Dm
great heights come down now they'll say.
F C
But everything looks perfect from far away, come
Bb Dm C
down now, but we'll stay.
[Solo]
F Am Gm x4
[Chorus]
F C
They will see us waving from such
Bb Dm
great heights come down now they'll say.
F C
But everything looks perfect from far away, come
Bb Dm C F
down now, but we'll stay.
