(verse 1)
Em         (D/F#) G           (G/B) C                  B7
   went out last  friday night,        felt like i was ready to
Em           (D/F# ) G        (G/B) C                        B7
   pretty pair of   green eyes,       sideways glance from across the room
Em           (D/F#)    G               G (strum)
   pretty soon we were locked in conversation

(pre-chorus)
Am7                            Dadd4*
 i could've kissed her, leaning up against the driver door
Am7                             D9
She was almost everything that i've been looking for

(chorus)
                G           Dadd4
She was almost you, almost you
Fadd2           C               G
      almost someone to hold on to
        Dadd4  Fadd2              C               G
Almost you,          a love to last my whole life
                  F               C
I swear and i think i've found it, the perfect love, she lets me down
G                  F                  C
   best someone else could hope to do
                                  Em  G (G/B) C  B7
Is take second place and be almost   you...

(interlude)

(verse2)
Em              ( D/F# ) G         (G/B) C                    B7
   stumbled on an old  photograph,       you and me we were holding hands
Em                     G       (G/B) C                        B7
   we were young and so in love,       like we couldn't get close enough
Em             (D/F#) G            G (strum)
   what happened to   happily ever after

(pre-chorus)
Am7               Dadd4*
 i never look at anyone the way i looked at you
    Am7                          D9
And i'm trying hard to find somebody new

(chorus)
                G           Dadd4
She was almost you, almost you
Fadd2           C               G
      almost someone to hold on to
        Dadd4  Fadd2              C               G
Almost you,          a love to last my whole life
                  F               C
I swear and i think i've found it, the perfect love, she lets me down
G                  F                  C
   best someone else could hope to do
