Verse 1:
C
You tell me that you`ve never been this way before
C7
You tell me things I know that I`ve heard somewhere
F
You`re standing in the places
Fm
And you`re staring down through faces
C Dm
That bring to mind traces of a girl
G C
A girl that I knew somewhere
Verse 2:
I just can`t put my finger on what it is
That says to me watch out, don`t believe her
I can`t give any reasons, girl
My thoughts are bound down in a whirl
I just can`t think who in the world was that girl
I know I met her somewhere
Bridge:
Ebm Bb
Someway somehow the same thing was done
Ab G
Someone somewhere did me the same wrong
Instrumental break:
(harpsichord solo over verse chords)
[repeat intro]
Verse 3:
Well goodbye dear, I just can`t take this chance again
My fingers are still burning from the last time
And if your love was not a game
I only have myself to blame
That`s as may be, I can`t explain
Just ask the girl that I knew somewhere
[repeat verse 3 from And if your love...]
Coda:
(fade out on C chord)
