[Verse 1] (play either the main riff or)
C                 G
I tried taking a picture of you
G                   C
But when I look in, nothing comes through
C                      G
Sometimes I wonder if you're just a ghost
G                   C
And I wonder what's haunting you most
C                      G
I tried describing you to all my friends
G                C
But they just told me to polish my lens
C                  G
You're sweet, generous, my sweetheart
G              C
I don't even know where to start

[Chorus]
Em       F                   G
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
            C  C/B            Am
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
            Dm                    G
Rosetta Stone could not translate you
                     C  C/B
I'm at a loss for words
                    Em
I'm at a loss for words
           F             G
I couldn't put it in a novel
           C  C/B           Am
I wrote a page but it was awful
           Dm                G
Now I just want to sing your gospel
                     C  
I'm at a loss for words
C/B
I'm at a loss for words

[Verse 2]
C  G  G  C

C                    G
I looked you up on Ancestry dot com
G                    C
There was no record of dad or of mom
C                        G
It's like you fell straight out of the sky
G                       C
And left the scholars to figure out why
C                     G
I like to think that I know quite a lot
G                    C
But with you it feels like I forgot
C                  G
I wish that I could explain who you are
G                     C
But when I try to I never get far

[Chorus]
Em       F                   G
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
            C  C/B            Am
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
            Dm                    G
Rosetta Stone could not translate you
                     C  C/B
I'm at a loss for words
                    Em
I'm at a loss for words
           F             G
I couldn't put it in a novel
           C  C/B           Am
I wrote a page but it was awful
           Dm                G
Now I just want to sing your gospel
                     C  
I'm at a loss for words
C/B
I'm at a loss for words

[Bridge]

C  G  Dm  Am  F  G  C  x2

C        G
We've come so far
Dm      Am 
Now here we are
F          G          C
We made it through the night
C      G
I know we will
Dm         Am
Be strong, cause still
F            G        C
Everything will be alright

[Chorus]
Em       F                   G
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
            C  C/B            Am
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
            Dm                    G
Rosetta Stone could not translate you
                     C  C/B
I'm at a loss for words
                    Em
I'm at a loss for words
           F             G
I couldn't put it in a novel
           C  C/B           Am
I wrote a page but it was awful
           Dm                G
Now I just want to sing your gospel
