Crooked Lines(Chords)

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

C 
God writes straight with crooked lines 
    F                 C        
He takes the mess we make in life 
G/B Am          D5                 G   G/B 
   Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme

Hidden by the veil of time 
     F             C 
The wisdom of His love's design

God writes straight with crooked lines 


verse 2 
C 
I've had days as dark as smoke 
         G/B 
When it hurt too much to hope 
         Am                             F  G 
And it felt like the pain would never end 
C                      
Searching for answers but finding jokes 
G/B                  E7 
Limping along the winding road 
Am                       Bb  G/D  C  G 
Certain He left me all alone 
          F                    Dm7                 G   Am 
When it's hard to trust that there's a greater plan 
        Bb                    F/A        G 
Like a child I've got to just hold His hand

Bridge 
      G       F        Dm7 
It's hard to see the picture 
                    G           C/E  G/D  C 
When we've got our head to the ground 
          Bb         C 
But the vision is perfect 
       F       G     C G/B 
From Heaven looking down 
Em7     G   F               Em/B 
There's a reason for every detour 
    Em/G     A7 A 
And every scar 
     Dm          G     F 
His mercy has always been 
D/F#            G 
Written in the stars
