Verse 1
[C] My daughter tries to draw a butterfly
With her c[G/B]rayons and crooked lines
And she's cr[Am]ying cause she just can't get it r[F]ight[G/B]
So I w[C]rap her tiny hand in mine
To g[G/B]uide her with her heart's design
And she sm[Am]iles as her dreams take fl[Bb]ight[C][G]
Perhaps that's [F/A]how it is on this l[F]abyrinth ro[G]ad[G/D][C]
I just ne[F]ed to let Him gu[F/A]ide my s[G]oul
Chorus
[C]God writes straight with crooked lines
He t[F]akes the mess we m[C]ake in life
[G/B] T[Am]urns our gro[D5]aning into perfect [G]rhym[G/B]e
[E7]Hidden by the v[Am]eil of time
The w[F]isdom of His l[C]ove's design
[D7sus2]God writes stra[Fsus2]ight with crooked line[C]s[G][G/B][C]
Verse 2
[C]I've had days as dark as smoke
When it h[G/B]urt too much to hope
And it fe[Am]lt like the pain would never en[F]d[G]
[C]Searching for answers but finding jokes
[G/B]Limping along the win[E7]ding road
[Am]Certain He left me all al[Bb]one[G/D][C][G]
When it's [F]hard to trust that th[Dm7]ere's a greater plan[G][Am]
Like a c[Bb]hild I've got to just [F/A]hold His ha[G]nd
Chorus 2
[C]God writes straight with crooked lines

Bridge
It's h[G]ard to s[F]ee the pi[Dm7]cture
When we've got our h[G]ead to the g[C/E]round[G/D][C]
But the vi[Bb]sion is per[C]fect
From He[F]aven loo[G]king d[C]ow[G/B]n
[Em7]There's a re[F]ason for every d[G/B]etour
And [Em/G]every sca[A7]r[A]
His m[Dm]ercy has alw[G]ays be[F]en
