C
Verse 1: 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
Ebm Bb
Bridge: 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)
