Key: A Major

🎸 Intro:

 A D A

🎸 Verse:
        A
Even something as small as an apple
       D                   E
It's simple and somehow complex
  A                       D
Sweet and divine, the perfect design
          A          E      A
Can I speak to the architect?

           A
There's a canyon that cuts through the desert
        D                     E
Did it get there because of a flood?
 A                 D
Was it devised or were you surprised
     A            E        A
When you saw how grand it was?



🎸 Chorus:
           F#m                        D
Was it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
          A                 E
Is there anything that you regret?
   A                             D
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
       F#m           E      A D A
Can I speak to the architect?

🎸 Verse:
    A
Somеtimes, I look in the mirror
     D                      E
And wish I could make a rеquest
         A                    D
Could I pray it away, am I shapeable clay?
   A            E        A
Or is this as good as it gets?

     A
One day, you're on top of a mountain
    D                          E
So high that you'll never come down
           A                       D
Then the wind at your back carries ember and ash
       A                E             A
That burns your whole house to the ground



🎸 Chorus:
         F#m                        D
Is it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
          A                 E
Is there anything that you regret?
   A                             D
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
       F#m           E      A D A
Can I speak to the architect?

🎸 Instrumental:

 C#m D x2
 A D A
🎸 Verse:
 A
I thought that I was too broken
     D                Esus4 E
And maybe too hard to love
   A                            D
I was in a weird place, then I saw the right face
         A             E            A
And the stars and the planets lined up

🎸 Chorus:
           F#m                     D
Does it happen by chance, is it all happenstance?
       A                     E
Do we have any say in this mess?
 A                 D
Is it too late to make some more space?
       F#m           E      A
Can I speak to the architect?
      A                          D
This life that we make, is it random or fate?
        F#m         E       A
Can I speak to the architect?
F#m          E      A
Is there an architect?
