I've heard that cowboys and angels

Are a match made in Heaven

So how come I still haven't found my happy ending?

'Cause out of the blue love finds you when you're least expectin'
D G C
But I've still got questions
[Chorus]
G
God only knows why you ain't mine yet
D
Maybe he's waitin' on perfect timing
Em
Are you down the road, are you out of state?
C
Are you still one heartbreak away?
G
And I know there's a little magic
D
In not knowing what's gonna happen
Em7 C
But I can't wait to see the day when we both know
G
What God only knows
[Verse 2]

Are you in a high rise apartment
Em
Or a small town where the stars live?

You got your momma's soft, your daddy's tough or somewhere in between

And do you think about me?

God only knows why you ain't mine yet

Maybe he's waitin' on perfect timing

Are you down the road, are you out of state?

Are you still one heartbreak away?

One day it'll all make sense and

Are you down the road, are you out of state?

Are you still one heartbreak away?
