Cmaj7 D/C 2x
Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Gadd2
A5/G D/F# C/E
In the quiet time of evening,
G/D C Gadd2
When the stars assume their patterns
D/F# Em Dmaj7 Cmaj9
And the day has made his journey,
C/D
And we wondered just what happened
Cmaj7 Am7 Bm7
To the life we knew, before the world changed,
Em C#m7 Cmaj7
When not a thing I held was true.
C/D
But you were kind to me,
Gadd2
And you reminded me
A5/G D/F# C/E
That the world is not my playground;
G/D C Gadd2
There are other things that matter;
D/F# Em Dmaj7 Cmaj9
And what is simple needs protecting.
C/D
My illusions all would shatter,
Cmaj7
But you stayed
Bm7 Am7 Bm7
in my corner,
Em C#m7 Cmaj7
The only world I knew was upside down,
Cmaj7/D
And now the world and me
will know you carried me.
[Chorus]
Gadd2
D/F# Em7 D Cmaj7
You see the patterns in the big sky;
D Em7
Those constellations look like you and I.
Bm7 C#mb5
Just like the patterns in the big sky,
A9
We could be lost; we could refuse to try
Cmaj7 G/B Am7 Bm7 Em
But to have made it through in the dark night,
C#m7 Cmaj7
Who would those lucky guys turn out to be
Cmaj7/D
But that unusual blend
Gadd2 D/F# Cmaj7
of my funny friend and me.
[Verse 2]
Gadd2
A5/G D/F# C/E
I'm not as clever as I thought I was.
G/D Cadd2 Gadd2
I'm not the boy I used to be because
You showed me something diff'rent.
F#m7 C/E D Cmaj7
You showed me something pure.
C/D
I always seemed so certain, but I was really never sure.
Cmaj7 Am7 Bm7
But you stayed, and you called my name
Em C#m7 Cmaj7
When others would have walked out on a lousy game.
Cmaj7/D
And look who made it through
Ebadd2
But your funny friend and you.
[Chorus]
Bb/D Ab/C Bb6 Abmaj7
You see the patterns in the big sky.
Bb Cm7
Those constellations look like you and I.
Cm/Bb Abmaj7
That tiny planet and the bigger guy.
Bb7sus Fadd2
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry.
C/E Bb/D C6 Bbmaj7
Just like the patterns in the big sky,
Bb/C C Dm7
We'll be together 'til the end of time.
Dm/C Bm7b5
Don't know the answer or the reason why.
G9
We'll stick together 'til the day we die.
Bbmaj9 Am7 Gm7 Am7 Dm7
If I have to do this all a second time,
Bm7 Bmaj7
I won't complain or make a fuss.
Bm7b5
Who would the angels send,
Bb/C
But that unlikely blend
Fadd2/C
Of these two funny friends?
That's us.
