The Head and the Heart – Missed Connection     (Album: Living Mirage (2019))

(No capo, standard tuning. Key: C ) 85 bpm

Am    C    G    F

If I never come through, Yes it haunts me

Sunny days I’d miss you, Yes it haunts me

First you see it, then you feel it, now I’m caught

And we’re making our own thing

Now I’m following you out to the coast

If I never come through, If I never come through

Am               C                        F                     C

 Don’t tell me I lost a step         Criss-crossed in the wrong direction

F                  C                                   G

 Found myself in a conversation,      From a missed connection

Am                   C

 Standing there in a purple dress,  Point my eyes in the right direction

F                 C

 Find myself in a conversation,  From a missed connection

[Post-Chorus]

         Am,  C              /   Dm        C        /   F C           /     G

La la la la. ……  

From a missed connection

Am,    C,    G,    F

Am                    C      G                F

I lost myself in this maze, Yes it haunts me

Felt it slipping sideways,  Yes it haunts me

      Am

But I see it and I feel it in my soul

Is there something I’m missing?

Should I follow this where ever it goes?

              C            G

I will always come through

              F

I will always come through

Am,    C,     Dm,     C,

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Am

Only as alone as I want to be, Passing all the people standing on the street,

The fallen fruit of a family tree, A crystal ball and the odyssey,

Am                             C

Did you find whatever you were looking for?

F                 C

Had to open every single door

F

I get the feeling you’ve been here before

N.C.

From a missed connection

[Chorus]

Am               C

[Post-Chorus]

Am              C

 And they’re falling to see it

Dm                C

 We’d be fools to waste it but we can

F       C            G

 Falling to feel the heat again

G

 From a missed connection
