Intro: D# A# Cm A# G#

Verse:
D#
 Down the block thereʼs an antique shop
    A#
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
Cm
On the counter was a cardboard box
        G#
And the sign said, ʼPhotos twenty five cents each
D#                                          A#
 Black and white, saw a thirties bride and school lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
Cm                                                G#
  The kinda love that you can only find once in a lifetime

The kind you donʼt put down
A#                  Cm                  G#            D#          A#               Cm        G#
 And thatʼs when I called you and itʼs so hard to explain, but in those photos I saw us instead
A#              Cm                G#                     D#
 And somehow I know that you and I wouldʼve found each other
A#                                          G#
In another life, you still wouldʼve turned my head
     A#
Even if wеʼd met

Chorus:
     D#
On a crowded street in 1944
A#
 And you werе headed off to fight in the war
Cm                        A#
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                   G#
We would have been timeless
           D#
I wouldʼve read your love letter every single night
A#                                           Cm
 And prayed to God youʼd be coming home all right
                      A#
And you wouldʼve been fine
                   G#
We would have been timeless
       D#              A#                   G#
ʼCause I believe that we were supposed to find this
                       Cm                            A#
So even in a different life, you still wouldʼve been mine
                 D#        A# Cm A# G#
We wouldʼve been timeless

Verse:
D#
 I had to smile when it caught my eye
          A#
There was one of a teenage couple on the driveway
Cm                                            G#
  Holding hands on the way to a dance and the date on the back said 1958
D#
 Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
A#
Time stood still like something in this old shop
Cm                                                        G#
  I thought about it as I started looking ʼround at these precious things that time forgot
A#              Cm          G#               D#
 Thatʼs when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
A#                  Cm            G#
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
A#            Cm             G#                 D#
 Hundreds of years ago they fell in love like we did
A#                           G#
 And Iʼd die for you in the same way
           A#
If I first saw your face

Chorus:
       D#
In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
A#
 And I was forced to marry another man
Cm                        A#
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                   G#
We would have been timeless
             D#
I would have read your love letters every single night
A#
 And run away and left it all behind
Cm                        A#
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                 G#
We wouldʼve been timeless
       D#              A#                   G#
ʼCause I believe that we were supposed to find this
                       Cm                            A#
So even in a different life, you still wouldʼve been mine
                 D#        A# Cm A# G#
We wouldʼve been timeless

Bridge:
A#           Cm        G#
Time breaks down your mind and body
A#         Cm                G#
Donʼt you let it touch your soul
               A#       Cm
It was like an age old classic
    G#                   D#
The first time that you saw me
    A#             Cm                G#
The story started when you said "hello"
     D#
In a crowded room a few short years ago
A#
And sometimes thereʼs no proof, you just know
Cm
  Youʼre always gonna be mine
              G#
Weʼre gonna be...
          D#
Iʼm gonna love you when our hair is turning grey
             A#                                      Cm
Weʼll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
                    A#                  G#
And youʼll say, "Oh my, we really were timeless"

Chorus:
               D#
Weʼre gonna be timeless
A#
Timeless
Cm                        A#
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                G#
We wouldʼve been
                      D#                    A#
Even if weʼd met on a crowded street in 1944
Cm                        A#
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                 G#
We wouldʼve been

Outro:

    A#                                    G#
