F                      Am      F Dm
Some people say two is company
A#                         Gm
Sherlock Holmes found the sign of four
C                      Am
I don't listen to that number theory
F                         Am     F        Dm
I'm always looking for a trio, them and me
A#                    Gm
One for all and we're all for one
 C                      Am
Musketeers have got to have the power of three

Every time I read the horoscope, I read three
Virgo, Pisces, Aquarius
Nobody can tell what's down the road for us
He could be Holmes, I'll be Watson
Every hero, yes even me
Everybody has their Moriarty

F                             Am
Keep your friends close, your enemies at your side
F                           Am
Always keep your green eyes open wide
A#                    Gm
Depth perception, a change of direction and
C                     Am
all signs point to a bumpy ride
F                       Am                F
Then I saw the fourth dimension, another line.
                             Dm
We move in space and we can move in time
A#                  Gm
Everything existed right from the start.
           C                        Am
It's the blink of an eye. It's the beat of a heart

F Am          F             Dm
    It's the beat of a heart

 F                     Am             F
We've got enemies and nemesis. And a world of
      Dm
possibilities
   A#              Gm
In everything you leave a clue
   C               Am
A little trace, a sign of you
