[Verse 1]
Gm7        Am7     F          Gm7
    Birds  fly   into  my  windshield
Gm7             Am7                F
      Thoughts  fall  from  my  thoughts                           
     Gm7              Am7           Eb7               D7
This good luck  charm      hanging  off  of  my  arm     
     Bb7                  A7
Was left here  by the  police
[Verse 2]
Gm7   Am7  F      Gm7
Words fall out of my pockets
Gm7      Am7   F
And cats under my feet
     Gm7      Am7         Eb7     D7
This colorful spell under which I live
   Bb7                 A7
Protects me from all I write
[Chorus]            
        E             B7                       E           B7
And the microscope  reveals the scope  of  my very best intentions
E             B7
very  best intentions                      
        E                    B7
Yes the   tiny light shines     twice  as   bright 
       E                           Em
On the   only  nice  part  of   me
