G The map of my heart looks a lot like yours From the one way streets to the old detoursBm To the dark dead ends with their missing signsEm The sun and the moon and the roads that windC G Like the stories we tell tracing the routesC G Wind in my ears, dirt on my boots [Verse 2]G The map of my heart is torn at the corners From ignoring the warnings, disobeying the ordersBm I've been lost in a crowd, found in solitaryEm I learned how to travel with just what I could carryC G Towards the vast unseen and the great unknownC G The map of a heart is all that we own [Bridge]D G Leaving safety to chance and reason behindD Am X marks every spot I thought I'd lost my mindD C I didn't think that I could but I couldn't stop trying [Verse 3]G And I can't stop trying to hold in my hands That moment I could feel my heart expandBm With more love than I thought could exist in the worldEm The hollows were gone, the emptiness filledC G A life transformed down to the boneC G This map of my heart is all that I own [Solo]F G F AmD G Do we ever stop longing and looking for homeD Am Do we ever stop feeling apart and aloneD C Do we ever stop dreaming of where we belongG This map of my heart looks a lot like yours
