               E
Heavy were the nights

                    E
When the fire burnt low

                A
I was moving in circles

                   E
Waiting for you to show

             E
Thinking too fast

                  E
Trying to breathe slow

                A
Longing for the handle

               E
To turn on the door
[Pre-Chorus]
    B              C#m              A                      E
And every sign you passed along the way looked twisted and burnt

     B           C#m             A             E
With messages in languages you’d never seen or heard

        D
But you drove on anyway
[Chorus]
    B   C#m B A
And oh, now,

         E             B
all of a sudden you’re here

    A E    B           C#m           B             A
And I can't remember a time when you weren't, it’s true

  E      B            C#m     B          A               B      E  Esus4 Esus2 Esus4  E
I had to believe that all the signs were arrows pointing you to me
[Instrumental] E E A E [Verse 2]
                E
Steady were the wheels

            E
Under every bus

          A
Chasing a horizon

            E
Nobody ever touched

             E
Singing into lights

               E
Questions over chords

               A
Hearing not an answer

                   E
But the silence of applause
[Pre-Chorus]
    B            C#m                 A           E
And every hand I tried to hold would fit there a while

     B              C#m         A               E
Till one of us grew tired of pretending it felt right

        D
But the emptiness would burn

     C               (B)                   Am          (G)   (F#) E
It's hard to make yourself leave space for someone that may never emerge
[Chorus]
    B   C#m B A
And oh, now,

         E             B
all of a sudden you’re here

    A      E    B           C#m           B             A
And I just can't remember a time when you weren't, it’s true

  E      B            C#m     B          A               B      E  Esus4 Esus2 Esus4  E
I had to believe that all the signs were arrows pointing you to me

E
They were pointing you to me
[Instrumental] A B C#m D#m E B A B C#m B [Bridge]
A               B
Every door that hit my face

C#m        D#m E           B
Every heady scent I chased

A                 B
Every oil-slicked mountain road

C#m           D#m E              B
Every blackened tear that soaked

A             B
Every twisted shouted word

C#m      D#m E          B
Every god I never heard

A              B
Every smile he yanked from me

C#m         D#m E       A    B   C#m
Every light I could not see…
[Outro]
    B             A
I'm thinking it's true

                          F#m
That all those signs were arrows

B              E    Esus4 Esus2 Esus4  E
Pointing me to you…
