Chords with lyrics
[Verse]
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Our place is outside the house, where house rules won't be broken
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I set aside a piece of my soul
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
The ring around the moon at night will be my only token
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I'll place it on your finger when we go
[Chorus]
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Never too far and never to touch
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
And I love you very much
[Verse]
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Separated by a gap in time I remember our first kiss
C majorC G+G D MajorD
That's not the only thing that I miss
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Every wink, every unsaid word, every song we listened to
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I'm blessed with the memories of you
[Chorus]
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
With respect in our resistance
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
And we're one in our distance
[Bridge]
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
As we are, we're worlds apart but I can still command your eye
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
I can make you smile, twitch or blush
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
And the other night when the lunar light had spread across the sky
C majorC D MajorD
It wasn't the white wine that gave the rush
[Chorus]
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Like an arrow straight and true
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
That of me and that of you
[Verse]
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
I'll be sure and let you know when I'm coming back to town
C majorC G+G D MajorD
You say that when I'm home you like to see me
D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD
You might get a letter or two but you'll never find me at your door
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I hear the air in Georgia's kind of sticky
[Coda]
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
So we'll lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
That will never come together
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
We'll lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
And perhaps it's for the better
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC | E minorEm G+G | D MajorD |
We'll lead parallel lives
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC | E minorEm G+G | D MajorD |
