              F5      Bb5 *              F5        * kbd: Bb5 - Db5 - Eb5 - F5
      For a while   to love was all we could do
               F5      1: Bb5  2: F5
      We were young and we knew
               D5          Bb5
      That our eyes   were alive
            Eb5            G5         C5
      Deep inside we knew our love was true


              F5   Bb5                 F5
      For a while we paid no mind to the past
      / G5 / G#5 F5          1: Bb5  2: F5
          We knew love would last
             D5               Bb5
      Every night   somethin' right
              G5        C5
      Would invite us to begin the dance

Pre-chorus:
       Bb5                 F5      D5
      Somethin' happened along the way
            G5                  F5   C#5
      What used to be happy was sad


      E5               D#5    G#5
      Somethin' happened along the way
          C#5                B5
      And yesterday was all we had
          C5   F5                Bb5
      And oh    after the love has gone
      Bb5       Eb5    Ab5
      How could you lead me on
        Ab5       Db5  Gb5
      And not let me stay around
      Ab5 Bb5 C5    F5                Bb5
       Oh   oh   oh    after the love has gone
          Bb5      Eb5     Ab5
      What used to be right is wrong
         Ab5      Db5    Gb5
      Can love that's lost be found
      1: Gb5 Db5 G5  C5
            /      /      /      /

           Oh   oh   oh      to coda

Verse 2:

      For a while   to love each other was all

      We would ever need

      Love was strong   for so long

      Never knew that what was wrong, oh baby

      Wasn't right    we tried to find what we had

      'Til sadness was all

      We shared (we were scared)

      This affair would lead our love in two


       Bb5                 F5      D5
      Somethin' happened along the way
      G5                   F5   B5
      Yesterday was all we had
