 Maybe your momma didn't treat you right;
Am                                      Em      D
 Maybe her intentions weren't even very good
G           C           D
 Maybe your daddy laid awake at night
Am                                        Em       D
 Imagining himself in some other neighbourhood
C                  G     C                      G
 Left to our own devices - like maybe they were too
C                G                          B7
 Out on the open road and wondering what to do

D               G               C     G/B Am
 You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how
Em              D                   C       G
 Cause that was sometime other than now

G                          C                        D
"It takes what it takes" - that's what they told us girl
Am                                          Em    D
Done a lot of dumb things, probably do some more
G                   C                  D
On two different paths running round on different worlds
Am                                               Em   D
We finally found each other, who we were looking for
C             G         C                      G
I see my own reflection and I give my love to you
C                    G                        B7
It shot back like an arrow, so straight and true
D              G               C     G/B  Am
You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how
Em              D                  C    G
Cause that was sometime other than now

         E                 Am           E
 I'm not leaving babe, whatever's come, right here and now
D                       G
 Maybe tommorrow we can take it
         E              Am         E
 I'm not grieving baby, any more - the past is gone
D                             C                 G/D          D
 We can't fake it; baby let's make it with this love of ours somehow

G                C                       D
A little bit of feel, you know it goes a long way
Am                                           Em   D
It's followed us around since we were little kids
G              C                D
Just a little faith, baby, baby some day
Am                                         Em       D
We will have the strength, the strength to forgive
C                     G     C                     G
Don't come all of a sudden, but when it's here at last
C                         G                       B7
You'd blink your eyes and miss it, it happens so fast
D              G               C      G   Am
You ask how we got here: baby, don't ask how
Em             D                    C   G
Cause that was sometime other than now
Em             D                   C       G
 Yeah that was sometime other than now
