[Verse]
Eb                                    
Down the block there's an antique shop
    Bb                                         Cm7
And something in my head said stop so I walked in 
       Cm            Cm7          
On the counter was a cardboard box
        Ab                                Eb  
And the sign said photos twentyfive cents each
          Eb                           
Black and white saw a thirtys bride and
Bb                                                   
Two lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
Cm          Cm7                               Ab      
The kind of love that you only find once in a lifetime
                       Ab  
The kind you don't put down
Bb                Cm                  Ab      Eb        
And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain
Bb                  Cm       Ab     
But in those photos I saw us instead
Bb            Cm            Ab                   Eb        
And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
Bb                                        Ab     
In another life you still would've turned my head


[Chorus]
Bb                    Eb                                  
Even if we'd met on a crowded street in nineteen fortyfour
Bb                                         
And you were headed off to fight in the war
Cm                      Bb  
You still would've been mine
                 Ab      
We would've been timeless
           Eb                                       
I would've read your love letters every single night
Bb                                         Cm   
And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right
                      Bb                    Ab      
And you would've been fine we would've been timeless
       Eb             Bb7              Ebsus4      
'cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
   Ab                  Cm7 
So even in a different life
          Cm            Bb  
You still would've been mine
                 Eb      
We would've been timeless

[Verse]
Eb                                  
I had to smile when it caught my eye
          Bb                                   
There was one of a teenage couple in a driveway
Cm7                                
Holding hands on the way to a dance
        Ab                                       
And the date on the back said nineteen fiftyeight
Eb                                               
Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
Bb                                              
Time stood still like something in this old shop
Eb        Cm                                  
I thought about it as I started looking 'round
         Ab                              
At these precious things that time forgot
Bb            Cm          Ab   Eb                
That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
Bb                 Cm            Ab  
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
Bb       Bbsus4 Bb             Ab                Eb    
Hundreds of     years ago they fell in love like we did
Bb7                             Ab 
And I'd die for you in the same way
           Bb           
If I first saw your face


[Chorus]
                    Eb                                
In the one thousand five hundreds up in a foreign land
Bb                                   
And I was forced to marry another man
Cm  Cm7                 Bb  
You still would've been mine
                 Ab      
We would've been timeless
           Eb                                       
I would've read your love letters every single night
Bbsus4  Bb                         
And run away and left it all behind
Cm                      Bb  
You still would've been mine
                 Ab      
We would've been timeless
       Eb             Bb7                 Ab       
'cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
                       Cm  
So even in a different life
                        Bb  
You still would've been mine
                 Eb      
We would've been timeless

[Bridge]
Bb   Bb7              Ab       Eb  
Time breaks down your mind and body
Bb        Cm                Eb   Ab
Don't you let it touch your soul ■ 
               Bb      Cm     
It was like an age old classic
    Ab                        
The first time that you saw me
    Bb            Cm            Ab   
The story started when you said hello


[Chorus]
     Eb                                
In a crowded room a few short years ago
Bb7                                         
And sometimes there's no proof you just know
Cm7                    Eb  
You're always gonna be mine
            Eb
We're gonna be
Ab        Eb                                    
I'm gonna love you when our hair is turning gray
             Bb                                     Cm  
We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
                  Bbsus4
And you'll say Oh my    
               Ab      
We really were timeless
Fm7            Eb       Bb      
We're gonna be timeless timeless
Cm                      Bb               Ab  
You still would've been mine we would've been
Ab            
Even if we met
     Bbsus4  Eb                 Bbsus4    Bb
On a crowded street in nineteen fortyfour ■ 
Cm7                     
Still would've been mine
Cm           Bb   Ab
You would've been ■ 


[Outro]
Ebsus4   Eb                           
Down the block there's an antique shop
    Bb                        Eb                 
And something in my head said stop so I walked in
