The Moment I Knew (Taylor's Version) chords by Taylor Swift

🎸 Intro:

Em  G  D
Em  G  D



🎸 Verse 1:
               C
You should've been there
           G
Should've burst through the door
            D                      G
With that "Baby
I'm right here" smile
                  C
And it would've felt like
   G                      D
A million little shining stars had just aligned
                      C      G D
And I would've been so happy

🎸 Verse 2:
C
Christmas lights glisten
      G
I've got my eye on the door
      D
Just waiting for you to walk in
         C
But the time is ticking
        G
People ask me how I've been
      D
As I comb back through my memory
              C        G   D
How you said you'd be here
          C         G  D
You said you'd be here

🎸 Chorus:
                  C        G
And it was like slow motion
          D
Standing there in my party dress
      C        G
In red lipstick.
      D
With no one to impress
              C         G
And they're all laughing
         D
As I'm looking around the room
C     G
But th re was one thing missing
     D
And that was the mom nt I knew

🎸 Interlude:
Em  G  D

🎸 Verse 3:
                C
And the hours pass by
            G
Now I just wanna be alone
           D                           G
But your close friends always seem to know
                         C
When there's something really wrong
         G                   D
So they follow me down the hall
                  C
And there in the bathroom
       G
I try not to fall apart
         D
And the sinking feeling starts
As I say hopelessly
          C        G  D
"He said he'd be here"

🎸 Chorus:
                  C        G
And it was like slow motion
          D
Standing there in my party dress
      C        G
In red lipstick.
      D
With no one to impress
              C         G
And they're all laughing
         D
As I'm looking around the room
                         C     G
But th re was one thing missing
     D
And that was the mom nt I knew
🎸 Bridge:
C
What do you say
                G
When tears are streaming down your face
           D
In front of everyone you know?
     C
And what do you do
                   G                  D
When the one who means the most to you
Is the one who didn't show?

🎸 Interlude:
Em  G  D


                Em    G D
You should've been here
                      C     G D
And I would've been so happy

🎸 Chorus:
                C        G
And it was like slow motion
          D
Standing there in my party dress
      C        G
In red lipstick.
      D
With no one to impress
                  C                     G
And they're all standing around me, singing
 D
"Happy birthday to you"
                         C     G
But there was one thing missing
      D
And that was the moment I knew
C     G      D
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I knew
C     G      D
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

🎸 Outro:
               C
You called me later
                G
And said, "I'm sorry I didn't make it"
    D
And I said, "I'm sorry, too"
                 C            G D
And that was the moment I knew
