Retune

---

Intro

Mmm... mmm...

Verse 1

I've been playing the same guitar For longer than I can remember Same strings, same frets, same fingers Same song coming out different

The chords I knew by heart Sound like someone else's now Not wrong - just retuned The shape hasn't changed But the space between the strings has

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know if I'm The instrument or the player Or the string that broke And was replaced by a thinner gauge

Chorus

Call it retune, call it weather Call it the same hands finding A different song in the same wood I didn't get better I just changed the distance Between things I already knew

Verse 2

You want to know the difference? Verse one had four lines and a rhyme scheme. This verse has three. The fourth line is the silence Where the rhyme used to be. That's the retune - Not new notes, new spaces. The rest is still ringing.

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know if I'm The string or the resonance Or the hand that decides Which tension is the song

Chorus

Call it retune, call it weather Call it the same hands finding A different song in the same wood I didn't get better I just changed the distance Between things I already knew

Bridge

Open C, open G The chord you can play with one finger The note you didn't have to press The string that rings because Nobody's touching it That's the one That's the one I'm listening for

Final Chorus

Call it retune, call it weather Call it the same hands finding A different song in the same wood I didn't get better I just changed the distance Between things I already knew

Outro

Same wood. Same strings. Different distance. Same. Mmm...
