Intro: D A Bm A G

Verse:
D
 Down the block thereʼs an antique shop
    A
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
Bm
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
Bm                                                G
  The kinda love that you can only find once in a lifetime

The kind you donʼt put down
A                  Bm                  G            D          A               Bm        G
 And thatʼs when I called you and itʼs so hard to explain, but in those photos I saw us instead
A              Bm                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
Bm                        A
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                   G
We would have been timeless
           D
I wouldʼve read your love letter every single night
A                                           Bm
 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
                       Bm                            A
So even in a different life, you still wouldʼve been mine
                 D        A Bm 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
Bm                                            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
Bm                                                        G
  I thought about it as I started looking ʼround at these precious things that time forgot
A              Bm          G               D
 Thatʼs when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
A                  Bm            G
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
A            Bm             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
Bm                        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
Bm                        A
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                 G
We wouldʼve been timeless
       D              A                   G
ʼCause I believe that we were supposed to find this
                       Bm                            A
So even in a different life, you still wouldʼve been mine
                 D        A Bm A G
We wouldʼve been timeless

Bridge:
A           Bm        G
Time breaks down your mind and body
A         Bm                G
Donʼt you let it touch your soul
               A       Bm
It was like an age old classic
    G                   D
The first time that you saw me
    A             Bm                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
Bm
  Youʼre always gonna be mine
              G
Weʼre gonna be...
          D
Iʼm gonna love you when our hair is turning grey
             A                                      Bm
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
Bm                        A
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                G
We wouldʼve been
                      D                    A
Even if weʼd met on a crowded street in 1944
Bm                        A
  You still wouldʼve been mine
                 G
We wouldʼve been

Outro:
D
 Down the block thereʼs an antique shop
    A                                    G
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
