Verse 1
C
  My daughter tries to draw a butterfly
          G/B
With her crayons and crooked lines
            Am                                F   G/B
And she's crying cause she just can't get it right
      C
So I wrap her tiny hand in mine
    G/B
To guide her with her heart's design
          Am                        Bb   C G
And she smiles as her dreams take flight
               F/A                F          G  G/D  C
Perhaps that's how it is on this labyrinth road
         F               F/A     G
I just need to let Him guide my soul

Chorus
C
God writes straight with crooked lines
    F                 C       
He takes the mess we make in life
G/B Am          D5                 G   G/B
   Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
E7             Am
Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
D7sus2         Fsus2                 C    G  G/B  C
God writes straight with crooked lines

Verse 2
C
I've had days as dark as smoke
         G/B
When it hurt too much to hope
         Am                             F  G
And it felt like the pain would never end
C                     
Searching for answers but finding jokes
G/B                  E7
Limping along the winding road
Am                       Bb  G/D  C  G
Certain He left me all alone
          F                    Dm7                 G   Am
When it's hard to trust that there's a greater plan
        Bb                    F/A        G
Like a child I've got to just hold His hand

Chorus 2
C
God writes straight with crooked lines
    F                 C       
He takes the mess we make in life
G/B Am          D5                 G   G/B
   Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
E7             Am
Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
D7sus2         Fsus2                 C    Csus4   C
God writes straight with crooked lines

Bridge
      G       F        Dm7
It's hard to see the picture
                    G           C/E  G/D  C
When we've got our head to the ground
          Bb         C
But the vision is perfect
       F       G     C G/B
From Heaven looking down
Em7         F               G/B
There's a reason for every detour
    Em/G     A7 A
And every scar
     Dm          G     F
His mercy has always been
D/F#            G
Written in the stars

[Twinkle Twinkle Little Star tune here]
C    G    F    C 
F    C    G    C           

Last Chorus
C
God writes straight with crooked lines
    F                 C       
He takes the mess we make in life
G/B Am          D5                 G   G/B
   Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
E7             Am
Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
D7sus2         Fsus2                 C   D
God writes straight with crooked lines
Dm    C/E      F          G        C   F    C
God writes straight with crooked lines
