[Intro] C G/B Am G F
[Primeira Parte]
C
Down the block, there's an antique shop and
G/B
Something in my head said, "Stop", so I walked in
Am
On the counter was a cardboard box
F
And the sign said, "Photos twenty five cents each"
C
Black and white, saw a thirties bride and
G/B
School lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
Am F
The kinda love that you only find once in a lifetime, the kind that you don't put down
G F
And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain
G F
But in those photos I saw us instead
G F
And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
G F
In another life, you still would've turned my head
G
Even if wе'd met
[Refrão]
C
On a crowded street in 1944
G/B Am
And you werе headed off to fight in the war; you still would've been mine
F
We would have been timeless
C
I would've read your love letters every single night
G/B Am
And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right and you would've been fine
F
We would have been timeless
C G/B F
'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
C G/B
So even in a different life, you still would've still been mine
We would've been timeless
( F G Am G/B F )
[Segunda Parte]
C
I had to smile when it caught my eye
G/B
There was one of a teenage couple in the driveway
Am F
Holding hands on the way to a dance and the date on the back said 1958
C
Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
G/B
Time stood still like something in this old shop
Am F
I thought about it as I started looking 'round at these precious things that time forgot
G Am F Am
That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
G Am F
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
G Am F Am
Hundreds of years ago they fell in love like we did
G Am F
And I'd die for you in the same way
G
If I first saw your face
[Refrão]
C
In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
G/B
And I was forced to marry another man
Am
You still would've been mine
F
We would have been timeless
C
I would have read your love letters every single night
G/B
And run away and left it all behind
Am
You still would've been mine
F
We would've been timeless
C G/B F
'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
C G/B
So even in a different life, you still would've still been mine
We would've been timeless
( F G Am G/B F )
[Ponte]
C G/B Am F
Time breaks down your mind and body
C G/B F
Don't you let it touch your soul
C G/B
It was like an age old classic
Am F
The first time that you saw me
C G/B F
The story started when you said "hello"
C
In a crowded room a few short years ago
G/B
And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
Am
You're always gonna be mine
F
We're gonna be
C
I'm gonna love you when our hair is turning grey
G/B
We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
Am F
And you'll say, "Oh my, we really were timeless"
[Refrão]
C
We're gonna be timeless
G/B
Timeless
Am
You still would've been mine
F
We would've been
G Am G
Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
Am
You still would've been mine
F
We would've been
[Final]
C
Down the block there's an antique shop
G/B F
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
