False Alarms

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

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

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

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

E                F#m

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

E                F#m
 But don't think,  don't be alarmed

 We had so many   false starts
