Jigsaw Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]We are jigsaw pieces aligned on the perimeter edge,
[G]
Intelocked through a missing [D]piece.
We are Renaissance children becalmed
beneath the bridge of sighs,
[G]Forever throwing firebrands
at the stone[D]work.
We [G]are Siamese

[Verse 2]
[Em]chil[C]dren
related by the [D]heart,
[Em]Bleeding from [G]the sur[C]gery of
ini[D]tial confrontation,
[Em]Holding the word scalpels
[C]on trembling lip[D]s.

[Verse 3]
Stand [Em]straight, [C]look me in the eye and [G]say goodbye,
[D]say goodbye.
Stand [Em]straight, [C]we've drifted past the
point of [G]reasons [D]why.
[Em]Yesterday starts to[C]morrow,
tomorrow [G]starts [D]today,
[Em]The problems always seem to be,
we're [C]picking up the pieces on the ri[G]cochet[D].[A]
[Em]This is the [D]ri cochet...

[Interlude 1]
[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Drowning Tequila sunsets,
stowaways on midnight ships,
[G]Refugees of romance plead
asylum from the [D]real.
Scrambling distress signals on
random frequencies,
[G]Forever repatriated on guilt
laden [D]morning planes.

[Verse 5]
We are [Em]pilots of [C]passion sweating
[D]the flight on course
To an[Em]other summit conference,
[C]another bre[D]akfast time divorce,
[Em]Screaming [C]out a ceasefire, snowblind in an
[D]avalanche zone.

[Verse 6]
Stand [Em]straight, [C]look me in the eye and [G]say good[D]bye,
say goodbye.
Stand [Em]straight, we've [C]drifted past the
point of [G]reasons [D]why.
[Em]Yesterday starts to[C]morrow,
tomorrow [G]starts [D]today,
The [Em]problems always seem to be,
we're [C]picking up the pieces on [G]the ri[D]cochet[Bbm].[Db]
This is the ri[Ab]cochet...
[Gb]

[Interlude 2]
[Bbm][Db][Fm][Gb][Bbm][Db][Ab]
[Gb][Bbm][Db][Ab][Gb][Bbm][Db][Ab]
[Gb][Bbm][Db]
[Ab][Gb][Bbm][Db][Ab][Gb]

[Verse 7]
Are [Bbm]we trigger happy, happy, happy?
[Db]Russian roulette in [Ab]the waiting [Gb]room,
[Bbm]Empty [Db]chambers embracing
[Ab]the end.[Gb]
[Bbm]Puzzled [Db]visions haunt the
ripples of [Ab]a trevi [Gb]moon,

[Verse 8]
[Bbm]Dream coins for the [Db]fountain
or to cover your [Ab]eyes.[Gb]
We [Fm]reached ignition [Db]point from
the sparks of [Eb]pleasantries,
[Fm]We sensed the smoke ad[Db]vancing
[Eb]from horizons,
[Fm]You must have known [Db]that I was
planning, considering an escape.
[Eb]

[Verse 9]
Stand [Am]straight, [F]look me in the eye and [C]say goodbye,
[G]say goodbye.
Stand [Am]straight, we've [F]drifted past
the point [C]of reasons [G]why.
[Am]Yesterday [F]starts tomorrow,
tomorrow [C]starts [G]today,
And [Am]the problems always seem to be,
We're [F]picking up the pieces on
the [C]ricochet[G].
[Gm]

[Verse 10]
[Eb]
This is the ricochet,
[F]I'll be seeing[Gm] you again
[Eb]on the ricochet,[F]
Will you show [Gm]me the pieces next[Eb] time on the ricochet[F],
(ricochet)
I'll be see[Gm]ing you a[Eb]gain
on the rico[F]chet,

[Verse 11]
There's a problem,
there's a ricochet, (ricochet)
