Verse 1:
         C#m        E
You were walking in the 
A      E Abm          Abm C#m B/D# E
sunset a-gain without a   has-sle
       A       E A
In the interim a princess 
E   Abm   Abm  C#m B/D# E
was in another castle
        C#m
Rolling different knocks
B   C#m        B   B
the first days and nights
       B    C#m
In the busy towns if we 
C#m           B   C#m
hadn't walked the same way
B    B        C#m
Well I end up on your ground


Chorus 1:
B
There I was
A
  none the wiser
C#m       B
Both of us different

trajectories
B                 A
Who'd have thought we'd
              C#m
be right here in this spot
B                     A E A
  Timing is everything
             E      Abm Abm C#m B/D#
Timing is everything


Verse 2:
E       C#m     B  C#m
Seems invisible to time it
B   B              B  C#m
out right when you get no hints
       C#m          B  C#m
It's a freaky world we live in
B     B            B C#m
but tonight we got a movement


Chorus 2:
B
There I was
A
  none the wiser
C#m       B
Both of us different
trajectories
B                 A
Who'd have thought we'd
              C#m
be right here in this spot
B                     C#m B C#m
  Timing is everything
                    B B
Timing is everything


Bridge:
E
You don't know
B/D#          C#m           Abm
You've got to trust it will go
       E              B/D#
If you just roll with the punches
C#m           Abm
your guts and your hunches


Chorus 3:
E          Abm
There I was
none the wiser
C#m       B
Both of us different
trajectories
E                 Abm
Who'd have thought 
we'd be right here 
C#m
in this spot
B
  Timing is everything


Chorus 4:
B
There I was
A
  none the wiser
C#m       B
Both of us different
trajectories
B                 A
Who'd have thought we'd
              C#m
be right here in this spot
B                     B A
  Timing is everything
                    C#m B
Timing is everything
B A                    C#m
   Timing is everything
B           (hold)
  Timing is everything
