Stolen title... hope it never makes the charts or I'll have to pay royalties
The chorus is stolen from a photograph one of my friends took (involving a chinchilla and a slipper, don't ask) which had this text on it. This lyric is about what I think she was trying to get at in the photo...
(EDIT: I''ve put the chords in now - just verse and chorus parts of course. If you don't understand the way I do this then tough luck...) ------ We walked past each other once (VERSE) -------Am------------------Am/G I have searched with futility for the perfect fit --Dm-----------------------F--------E A cool wind to guide me, not leave me adrift --Am A two person jigsaw ---Am/G Of which one piece was you ----Dm We came within footsteps ----F--------E Yet we never knew (CHORUS) ------F Never meeting ------Fm Is the worst thing Am------------------F Both of us have ever done ------------Dm---------------Fm---Am Although we walked past each other once Am-----------------Am/G I was distracted as a matter of fact -----Dm------------------------F----------E By a torn paper fragment on the pave stone path ---Am An unfinished essay ---Am/G A shopping list -----Dm You passed as my head turned ---------F----------E And, in a breath, all chances were missed (CHORUS - same chords again) Never meeting Is the worst thing Both of us have ever done Although we walked past each other once |
