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
