[Verse]
Gm           Cm          F                 Bb
It seemed to be like the perfect thing for you and me
Gm       Cm                F          Bb
It's so ironic you're what I pictured you to be
Gm            Cm           F            Bb
But there are facts in our lives we can never change
Gm           Cm            D/A
Just tell me that you understand and feel the same
 
Gm           Cm           F            Bb
This perfect romance that I've created in my mind
Gm         Cm                  F                  Bb
I'd live a thousand lives each one with you right by my side
Gm         Cm                  F                 Bb
But yet we find ourselves in a less than perfect circumstance
Gm        Cm               D/A
And so it seems like we'll never have the chance
 
[chorus]
Gm                                        Cm7
Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny
        D                  Gm
And you can't move on even though you try
Gm                                              Cm7
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
D
Oh, I wish this could be real
Gm                                     Cm7
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life
        D                         Gm
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right
Gm                            Cm7
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part
D
In the story of your heart
 
[verse]
Gm          Cm           F             Bb
Sometimes I think that a true love can never be
Gm       Cm             F             Bb
I just believe that somehow it wasn't meant for me
Gm          Cm         F          Bb
Life can be cruel in a way that I can't explain
Gm          Cm                 D/A
And I don't think that I could face it all again
 
Gm       Cm               F               Bb
I barely know you but somehow I know what you're about
Gm       Cm                 F            Bb
A deeper love I've found in you and I no longer doubt
Gm                Cm           F             Bb
You've touched my heart and it altered every plan I've made
Gm        Cm                D/A
And now I feel that I don't have to be afraid

[bridge]
Cm7              Gm                        D
I locked away my heart but you just set it free
                Gm                                    Cm7
Emotions I felt held me back from what my life should be
                  Gm                          D/A
I pushed you far away and yet you stayed with me
D/A
I guess this means that you and me were meant to be
