INTRO
E5  D#5 *  C#5   D#5 *

VERSE 1
    E5                         D#5 *
The first time that I saw you, lookin' like you did
         C#5                         B5
We were young, we were restless, just two clueless kids
         C#5               B5                     E5   D#5 * C#5  B5
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

VERSE 2
     E5              D#5 *
On a bus in Chicago, three rows to the left
             C#5                           B5
You know my heart was racing for you, but we never even met
         C#5               B5                     E5
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

CHORUS
       A5            E5
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
F#m11                   B5
Knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A5               E5
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B5
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#5               B5                     E5   D#5 *  C#5  B5
And if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

VERSE 3
      E5                    D#5 *
On a sunny night in August, backseat of my car
           C#5                         B5
Instead of tryin' to get to know you, I took it way too far
         C#5               B5                     E5
But if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love, oh

CHORUS
       A5            E5
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
F#m11                   B5
Knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A5               E5
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B5
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#5               B5                     E5
And if I knew then, what I know now, I'd fall in love

BRIDGE
         A5                       E5
And oh I used up a lot of chances, I can't get them back
    G5                              B5
But if again it comes callin', I'm gonna make it last

CHORUS
       A5            E5
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
   F#m11                   B5
It knocks on your door and throws you a smile
    A5               E5
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
F#m11                    B5
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
         C#5               B5
And if I knew then, what I know now
           F#m11               B5
Whoa, if I knew then, what I know now

OUTRO
E5  D#5 *  C#5  B5            E5
                     I'd fall in love.
