A D F#m E
A D A   E


Verse:
           F#m              D
Why do you look at me like that.
                   A                       E
Your eyes saying things that they can't take back.
      F#m          D               A      E/G#
Feels good. Feels right. It don't help.
           F#m            D
Immer wenn du wieder vor mir stehst
                A              E
schaust du mich an doch es ist zu spät
    F#m         D         A      E/G#
ich weiß, dass du wieder gehst

Pre-Chorus:
  D                             E
Every time I'm next to you, I swear that you can feel it too.
     D/F#                          E*
How long can we do this to ourselves?


Chorus:
                D         A
In a different place and time,
          E      F#m                    D      A              E
maybe in another life, I bet that baby you and I would have worked.
                      D        A
We'll never get the chance to try.
           E       F#m
And what makes it worse is
               D               E       A
You would’ve loved me, if you met me first.


Verse:
          F#m                   D
Ich weiß genau, du fühlst auch wie ich
                    A                     E
doch den nächsten Stritt, nein den geh´n wir nicht
     F#m      D                 A    E/G#
dein Herz gehört nun mal nicht mir


Pre-Chorus:
          D                            E
I can't steal you from somebody else, just to have you to myself.
     D                                  E*
My heart don't wanna hear me tell the truth.


Chorus:
                D         A
In a different place and time,
           E     F#m                    D      A              E
maybe in another life, I bet that baby you and I would have worked.
                      D        A
We'll never get the chance to try.
           E       F#m
And what makes it worse is
               D               E       A
You would’ve loved me, if you met me first.


Bridge:
 D
I'm not hanging on to hope.
 E                    A    D                            E*
If you do or if you don't, I don't ever wanna know for sure.


Chorus:
              F#m      D
Immer wenn du bei mir bist
                       A       E
dann fühl ich dass es richtig ist
                    F#m     D         A      E/G#
Dann weiß ich, dass du und ich zusamm gehörn

                  D          A
Oh in a different place and time,
            E    F#m                   D       A             E
maybe in another life, I bet that baby you and I would have worked.
                      D        A
We'll never get the chance to try.
          E       F#m
And what makes it worse is
               D               E       A
You would’ve loved me, if you met me first.
                       D               E       A
Cause you would have loved me, if you met me first.
