Arrows by Missy Higgins
Arrows
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
E E A E
[Verse 1]
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…
