A
We were still in high school
A
When I first met you 
  F#m
Even then you were the prettiest girl 
F#m
That I ever knew 
    D
And we carved our name on 
            E
Everything that we could find 
             A   A
The way that all kids do 
A
And although time has passed 
           A
I still get surprised 
      F#m
At the pulling in my chest
F#m
When I know you're coming by 
        D
If this feeling's proving anything 
      E
It's not everything 
             A
Is gonna change with time 
            A
You're still mine 

     A        A
Did you know when you're around 
       F#m              F#m
My heart won't it can't slow down 
          D            E
It beats so hard it makes it hard 
          A             A
To catch my breath, to catch my breath 
A
Don't ever ask me if I'm sorry 
A
Or that I'm here with you
  F#m
Baby you can bet 
F#m
I don't regret the girls I never knew 
    D
Every day's another first 
      E
Another chance for me 
                 A
To fall in love with you 
    A
And I do: 
     A          A
Did you know when you're around 
     F#m                F#m
My heart won't it can't slow down 
          D            E
It beats so hard it makes it hard 
          A              A
To catch my breath, to catch my breath
  G
Oh.. when you're with me 
       D
I stop seeing 
       F#m             E   G
Any way to fail how do I explain 
                      D
I try to tell you what I'm feeling 
             E
But how do I when all words pale 
     A          A
Did you know when you're around 
      F#m               F#m
My heart won't it can't slow down 
          D           E
It beats so hard it makes it hard 
          A              A
To catch my breath, to catch my breath
     B         B
Did you know when you're around 
     G#m                G#m
My heart won't it can't slow down 
        E             Fm
It beats so hard it makes it hard 
          B              B
To catch my breath, to catch my breath     (3X)
