Bluest summer skies, cloudless in your eyes.  A little out of focus here.

But don't be afraid of anything that faces you today.
                                 Ab               A
You might not know this but I'm with you all the way.

(Repeat intro chords)

VERSE 2:
--------
If I could read the lines and find your smile to hide behind
I wonder what encouragement I'd find.
If you could only see this photograph of you and me
It's always out of focus in my mind.

I really want to know if it could be worth anything at all.
