[Intro]
E E
[Verse 1]
E E
Do you remember when we first met?
A A
We were taking turns singing songs about grandmothers
E E
I believed in the beauty of the unexpected connection
A A
And drew in all of the good that I had been expecting
B B
Do the work to keep yourself open to other people's magic
[Verse 2]
E E
You devoured me whole like a ravenous animal
A A
Every single thing you said was the best I'd ever heard
E E
Couldn't keep a job, you were dreaming yourself down and out, but
A A
It only takes one fierce love to raise you up from the ground
B B
But I stopped callin' my momma, I tried to adopt yours
A A
Tried to forget where I came from, and the hurt that I had caused
B B
Thank God for the seers, who can perceive where we are heading
A A
With patience for the long road we've been walking on
B B
It takes a real big heart to hold that liiine
[Chorus]
E F#m
But don't think, don't be alarmed
C#m B
This was always gonna break your hard heart
A F#m
We had so many false starts
C#m B B7
We set so many false alarms, false alarms
[Instrumental]

B7
E F#m
But there's a new vibration on my tongue tonight
C#m B
I see it getting older, I feel it coming right
A F#m
You walk out the door into the street, I see you lookin' around for me
C#m B B7
We are made of possibility
[Chorus]
E F#m
But don't think, don't be alarmed
C#m B
This was always gonna break your hard heart
A F#m
We had so many false starts
C#m B B7
We set so many false alarms, false alarms
[Bridge]
E G#m
Don't let your mind get stuck in that game
A B
In the times when it goes the wrong way
E G#m
We will get hurt and we will make mistakes
A B
There will not always be the right words to say, but
A A
You are built upon generations of love
C#m C#m
When you forget where you are headed, know that that's what you are made of
A A
We are built upon generations of love
B B
It is the pleasure that I want for you and you will know the depths of
our love
A A B B
With every single day I show up, a song of worship on my tongue
[Chorus]
E F#m
But don't think, don't be alarmed
C#m B
This was always gonna break your hard heart
A F#m
We had so many false starts
C#m B B7
We set so many false alarms, false alarms
[Chorus]
E F#m
But don't think, don't be alarmed
C#m B
This was always gonna break your hard heart
A F#m
We had so many false starts
C#m B B7
We set so many false alarms, false alarms
