Verse 1
C majorC
 My daughter tries to draw a butterfly
     G/BG/B
With her crayons and crooked lines
      A minorAm                FF  G/BG/B
And she's crying cause she just can't get it right
   C majorC
So I wrap her tiny hand in mine
  G/BG/B
To guide her with her heart's design
     A minorAm            Bb majorBb  C majorC G+G
And she smiles as her dreams take flight
        F/AF/A        FF     G+G G/DG/D C majorC
Perhaps that's how it is on this labyrinth road
     FF        F/AF/A   G+G
I just need to let Him guide my soul

Chorus
C majorC
God writes straight with crooked lines
  FF         C majorC
He takes the mess we make in life
G/BG/B A minorAm     D5D5         G+G  G/BG/B
  Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
E7E7       A minorAm
Hidden by the veil of time
   FF       C majorC
The wisdom of His love's design
D7sus2     Fsus2Fsus2         C majorC  G+G G/BG/B C majorC
God writes straight with crooked lines

Verse 2
C majorC
I've had days as dark as smoke
     G/BG/B
When it hurt too much to hope
     A minorAm               FF G+G
And it felt like the pain would never end
C majorC
Searching for answers but finding jokes
G/BG/B         E7E7
Limping along the winding road
A minorAm            Bb majorBb G/DG/D C majorC G+G
Certain He left me all alone
     FF          Dm7Dm7         G+G  A minorAm
When it's hard to trust that there's a greater plan
    Bb majorBb          F/AF/A    G+G
Like a child I've got to just hold His hand

Chorus 2
C majorC
God writes straight with crooked lines
  FF         C majorC
He takes the mess we make in life
G/BG/B A minorAm     D5D5         G+G  G/BG/B
  Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
E7E7       A minorAm
Hidden by the veil of time
   FF       C majorC
The wisdom of His love's design
D7sus2     Fsus2Fsus2         C majorC  Csus4Csus4  C majorC

Bridge
   G+G    FF    Dm7Dm7
It's hard to see the picture
          G+G      C/EC/E G/DG/D C majorC
When we've got our head to the ground
     Bb majorBb     C majorC
But the vision is perfect
    FF    G+G   C majorC G/BG/B
From Heaven looking down
E minor 7Em7     FF        G/BG/B
There's a reason for every detour
  Em/GEm/G   A7A7 A augmentedA
And every scar
   DmDm     G+G   FF
His mercy has always been
D/F#D/F#      G+G
Written in the stars
