DA
I called your name out loud
GAD
To a stranger yesterday
DA
When she turned around
GAD
I said "I'm sorry" and just walked away
GD
From a distance she had that look
GG/F#EmA
And for a second or two
Chorus:
DD/F#
I thought it was you
GAD
Took a moment to catch my breath
GAG
Try to brace myself
ADD/F#
Still don't have a clue
GAD
On how to leave your memory behind
GABm7
After all this time
GG/F#Em
I hear there's one special love in each life
D
And I must look like a fool
GAD
I thought it was you
I still drive by your house
Taking trips down memory lane
We had our future worked out
At least we did on that old porch swing
Today in my rearview mirror
I saw an old Malibu
Chorus
I thought it was you
I thought it was you
Why couldn't it be you
