Verse 1:
C                   Em
Everybody needs an anchor
                         D         G
A little something that makes you stay
                          D
An incentive, someone to fight for
D     D     D     D     D          C
Cause no one really needs so much space

C                         Em
A couple years ago I was lonely
                      D           G
I used to think that there was no God
                                    D
But then you looked at me with your blue eyes
D     D     D     D      D     C
And my agnosticism turned into dust


Pre-Chorus:
C              G
How well you know me
                        D        Dsus4 D
That I don??t care if the rest don??t
                    Em
It doesn??t matter to me, no ohh
         C               G
Oh-oh-oh as long as you love me
           Am*                C*
As long as we still have each other


Chorus:
G   Am         C
I knew we had something
         D
From the moment I met you
G     Am           C
And I knew we had something
        D
No one thought it could be true
G    Am       C
Hey do you believe
          D             G
Do you believe in destiny?
        Am            C*
Cause I do as I did then

When you were only 23
G                 C                 G
Pararapa-pararapa pararapa-pararapa pararapa-pararapa
Am*
Ahh- ahh


Verse 2:
C                         Em
God knows that I??m a good dancer
                          D        G
My feet can move to the music he plays
                                    D
But there were times I asked for an answer
D                                C
When he was acting in mysterious ways

C                                   Em
There were nights that I stayed up crying
                          D               G
Cause I was certain that things wouldn't change
                                D
But then you came and I saw you smiling
D                                   C
Just like an angel, so beautifully strange


Pre-Chorus:
C             G
And then you touched me
                            D        Dsus4 D
It's like you were made for me, oh-oh
                         Em
Like it was all meant to be, oh-oh
          C                    G
And I was sure that you would love me
               Am*              C*
And that we'd always have each other


Chorus:
G   Am         C
I knew we had something
         D
From the moment I met you
G     Am           C
And I knew we had something
        D
No one thought it could be true
G    Am       C
Hey do you believe
          D             G
Do you believe in destiny?
        Am            C*
Cause I do as I did then

When you were only 23
G                 C                 G
Pararapa-pararapa pararapa-pararapa pararapa-pararapa
Am*
  Oh, oh


Bridge:
    Am                                      D
I always thought that I was fine but I was wrong
       G                          C
It was you, that one piece I was missing
    Am                                      D
And I could do without you but, it'd be no fun
         G                        C
I found you and life was suddenly easy
                       Am*
There ain't no worries now
                       D*
There ain't no feeling down

Chorus:
G   Am         C
I knew we had something
         D
From the moment I met you
G     Am           C
And I knew we had something
        D
No one thought it could be true
G    Am       C
Hey do you believe
          D             G
Do you believe in destiny?
        Am            C*
Cause I do as I did then
                    G*
When you were only 23
