Intro - D C9 Gmaj9 G  x2

        G
So I stand up 
            A74
Feel the needles in my feet 
              C9
And my legs are still asleep 
                 G
But it's the morning 

Fold the blankets 
Shake the grass out of the sheets 
Throw it all in my back seat 
And drive you home 

        Em7                         C9                       
Yeah knowing me and knowing you 
       Em7                             C9
The stars could not have had a clue 
       Em7                C9                       D
We never meant to start this thing between us 

A74    G                    D
It just happened that way
                Em7                      C9
Ya know sometimes it does
                                    G 
Sometimes the planets align 
                                D
And you both lose time, Can't change your mind 

A74     G                    D
It just happened that way 
       Em        A74
No time to invest 
             G                C9
Ya just pray for the best 
                D9
And you say 
                                 C9    Gmaj9   G 
It just happened that way 
                          D   C9     Gmaj9   G
Just happened that way 



By tomorrow 
We may be the talk of town 
Yeah word will get around 
That we're together 

Oh but the thing is, girl 
They will never understand 
It was just an accident 
That kinda worked out 

Yeah knowing me and knowing you 
I think we can both agree 
We never meant to start this thing between us 

It just happened that way 
Ya know sometimes it does 
Sometimes the planets align 
And you both lose time 
Can't change your mind 

It just happned that way 
No time to invest 
Just pray for the best 
And you say 

Oh love 
Em                          C                      A74
We could run yeah, we could run away 
Thinking it over 
We could run yeah, we should run away 
Would you come with me 
We could run yeah, we should run away 
Thinking it over 

I'm smiling 
Cause I know that they will see 
Our straight and narrow ways just took a turn 
We'll take a highway without ever looking back 
And in ten years we can laugh at how we got there 

Yeah knowing me and knowing you 
The stars could not have had a clue 
We never meant to start this thing between us 

It just happened that way 
Ya know sometimes it does 
Sometimes the planets align 
And you both lose time 
Can't change your mind 

It just happened that way 
No time to invest 
Just pray for the best 
Oh and I know it's a mess 
We'll pray for the best 
We'll say 
It just happened that way 
Just happened that way
