Verse 1:
Eb
 Down the block there's an antique shop
    Bb
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in

On the counter was a cardboard box

And the sign said, 'Photos twenty five cents each'
Eb                                          Bb
 Black and white, saw a thirties bride and school lovers laughing on the porch of their first house

Bb              Cm                Ab                     Eb
 And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
Bb                                          Ab
In another life, you still would've turned my head

Even if wе'd met

     Eb
On a crowded street in 1944
Bb
 And you werе headed off to fight in the war

  You still would've been mine

We would have been timeless

I would've read your love letters every single night
Bb                                           Cm
 And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right
                      Bb
And you would've been fine
                   Ab
We would have been timeless
       Eb              Bb                   Ab

 I had to smile when it caught my eye

There was one of a teenage couple in the driveway
Cm                                            Ab
  Holding hands on the way to a dance and the date on the back said 1958
Eb
 Which brought me back to the first time I saw you

Time stood still like something in this old shop
Cm                                                        Ab
  I thought about it as I started looking 'round at these precious things that time forgot

 That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs

Story of a romance torn apart by fate
Bb            Cm             Ab                 Eb
 Hundreds of years ago they fell in love like we did
Bb                           Ab
 And I'd die for you in the same way
           Bb
If I first saw your face

Chorus:
       Eb
In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
Bb
 And I was forced to marry another man
Cm                        Bb
  You still would've been mine
                   Ab
We would have been timeless
             Eb
I would have read your love letters every single night
Bb
 And run away and left it all behind
Cm                        Bb
  You still would've been mine
                 Ab
We would've been timeless

Don't you let it touch your soul
               Bb       Cm
It was like an age old classic

The first time that you saw me
    Bb             Cm                Ab
The story started when you said "hello"
     Eb
In a crowded room a few short years ago
Bb
And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
Cm                       Bb
  You're always gonna be mine

We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
