Capo on fourth fret

G     
when the stars line up

and you catch a good break
Em7
and people think that you're lucky

but you know it's grace
C9
it can happen so fast
   D
or a little bit late
C9
timing is everything


G
you know I've had close calls

when it could have been me
Em7
i was young when i learned just

how fragile life could be
C9
i lost friends of mine
D
i guess it wasn't my time
C9               G
time is everything
C9                                             G
and i could have been a child that got took home
C9                                            G
and i would have been one more unfinished song
C
and when it seems a rhyme is hard to find
Am
that's when one comes along
D
just in time

G
well I remember that day
G
when our eyes first meet
Em7
you ran into the building to get out of the rain

cause you were soaking wet
C9
and as i held the door
D
you wanted to know my name
C9                 G
timing is everything


C9                                    G
and i could have been another minute late
C9                                             G
and you never would have crossed my path that day
C
and when it seems true love is hard to find
Am
that's when love comes along
D
just in time


G
well you can call it fate

or destiny
Em7
sometimes it really

feels like

it's a mystery 
C9
you can be hurt by love
D
or healed by the same
C9                G
timing is everything 
C9                G
timing is everything
    C9             G
timing is everything
