Parallel Lives chords by Storyhill

[Verse]
D                Em                    G                     D
Our place is outside the house, where house rules won't be broken
C              G           D
I set aside a piece of my soul
D                    Em                 G          D
The ring around the moon at night will be my only token
C                      G              D
I'll place it on your finger when we go


[Chorus]
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em         G                D
Never too far and never to touch
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em     G             D
And I love you very much

[Verse]
D               Em              G                D
Separated by a gap in time I remember our first kiss
C                     G           D
That's not the only thing that I miss
D                 Em                  G                D
Every wink, every unsaid word, every song we listened to
C                     G           D
I'm blessed with the memories of you


[Chorus]
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em       G             D
With respect in our resistance
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em        G           D
And we're one in our distance


[Bridge]
      Bm          A                       G                D
As we are, we're worlds apart but I can still command your eye
       Bm        A                G     D
I can make you smile, twitch or blush
        Bm                    A                 G                D
And the other night when the lunar light had spread across the sky
    C                                   D
It wasn't the white wine that gave the rush


[Chorus]
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em         G                 D
Like an arrow straight and true
Em  G    D        C
We lead parallel lives
Em       G              D
That of me and that of you


[Verse]
D                Em                    G              D
I'll be sure and let you know when I'm coming back to town
C                      G                D
You say that when I'm home you like to see me
D                Em                       G                     D
You might get a letter or two but you'll never find me at your door
C                  G                  D
I hear the air in Georgia's kind of sticky


[Coda]
Em        G    D        C
So we'll lead parallel lives
Em         G            D
That will never come together
Em     G    D        C
We'll lead parallel lives
Em      G                 D
And perhaps it's for the better
Em     G    D        C | Em G | D |
We'll lead parallel lives
Em  G    D        C | Em G | D |
