INTRO
E5  D#m *  C#m7   D#m *

VERSE 1
    E5                         D#m *
The first time that I saw you, lookin' like you did
         C#m7                         B4
We were young, we were restless, just two clueless kids
         C#m               B                     E5   D#m * C#m7  B4
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

VERSE 2
     E5              D#m *
On a bus in Chicago, three rows to the left
             C#m7                           B4
You know my heart was racing for you, but we never even met
         C#m               B                     E5
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

CHORUS
       A9            EM7/G#
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
F#m11                   B4
Knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A9               EM7/G#
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B4
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#m               B                     E5   D#m *  C#m7  B4
And if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

VERSE 3
      E5                    D#m *
On a sunny night in August, backseat of my car
           C#m7                         B4
Instead of tryin' to get to know you, I took it way too far
         C#m               B                     E5
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love, oh

CHORUS
       A9            EM7/G#
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
F#m11                   B4
Knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A9               EM7/G#
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B4
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#m               B                     E5
And if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

BRIDGE
         A9                       EM7/G#
And oh I used up a lot of chances, I can't get them back
    G                              B
But if again it comes callin', I'm gonna make it last

CHORUS
       A9            EM7/G#
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
   F#m11                   B4
It knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A9               EM7/G#
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B4
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#m               B
And if I knew then, what I know now
           F#m11               B
Whoa, if I knew then, what I know now

OUTRO
E5  D#m *  C#m7  B4            E
                     I'd fall in love.
