[Verse 1]
D/F# G A
All of our dreams are laid out and measured
D/F# G Bm A
Arrows and pins and a rainbow of threads
D/F# G G A/C#
Like hope on a string, sewn into the linings
D/F# G Bm D A
For the courage to face the un - known ahe-ad
 
[Chorus]
D/F# G Bm A
My soul compan - ion
D/F# G A D/F# G
Out in the world somewhere
Bm A
My soul compan - ion
D/F# G A
I'll meet you there
 
D/F# G Bm A
D/F# G Bm A
 
[Verse 2]
D/F# G A
I'm packing my compass, trusted and tested
D/F# G Bm A
My dog-eared maps to study and fold
D/F# G A
Into a pocket, I'm traveling light now
D/F# G Bm A
All that we have is all that we hold
 
[Chorus]
D/F# G Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G A D/F# G
In my heart you are
 
D/F# G Bm A
D/F# G Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G A
Ooh, just like a star
 
[Bridge]
Em D A
There are no borders, there are no boundaries
Em D A
There are no fences up around me
Em D A
But I get quiet, and I get lonely
Em D
Just like everyone

[Verse 3]
D/F# G Bm A
These are the old roads, these are the stations
D/F# G A
I look for my ride, you wait for your train
D/F# G Bm A
These are the chances, a life's incantations
D/F# G A
These are the places that don't know our names
 
[Chorus]
D/F# G Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G A D/F# G
Love finds its own way in
Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G A
Now let us begin
D/F# G Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G A D/F# G
Out in the world somewhere
Bm A
My soul companion
D/F# G Bm A
I will meet you there
