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..."
