[Verse 1] I drew a map in pencil on the back of a receipt You took a left at Tuesday, I took three steps off the beat The kettle missed its whistle, the bus went sailing by You grinned and made a parade out of the rain we couldn't dry [Pre-Chorus] So let the neat lines wobble Let the careful plan come loose There's room inside the stumble For a better kind of move [Chorus] Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Turn the slip into a spark Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Make a doorway from the mark When the whole thing skips a measure We can find another way Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! And keep playing anyway [Verse 2] The cake leaned like a tower, the guests arrived at half past two You set the crooked candles straight, then let them lean anew A pocket full of loose change kept the rhythm on the stairs We made a little feast from all the things that weren't prepared [Pre-Chorus] So let the neat lines wobble Let the careful plan come loose There's room inside the stumble For a better kind of move [Chorus] Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Turn the slip into a spark Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Make a doorway from the mark When the whole thing skips a measure We can find another way Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! And keep playing anyway [Bridge] One-two-three, then one-two Hold your place, then change the view If the floor tilts, take my hand We can land where we don't plan [Final Chorus] Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Turn the slip into a spark Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! Make a doorway from the mark When the whole thing skips a measure We can find another way Laugh through the wrong notes, hey! And keep playing anyway [Outro] Keep playing anyway Laugh through the wrong notes
