If you listen to the song, there's obviously a lot more going on. But its a basic IV-iii-ii-I chord structure. Passing notes and chords can be applied liberally. It's a slow, groovy, simple jazz progression so have fun. Check out Aldjuan's on YT for more in depth passing notes and chords. [Intro] Dmaj7 C#m7 Bm7 Amaj7 [Verse 1]

Dmaj7

I'd never come here
[tab]C#m7
If I'd known that you were here

I must admit though

        Bm7
That's it's nice to see you, dear

                           Amaj7
You look like you've been doing well

[Verse 2]

Dmaj7
Hello like before

I hope we've grown

C#m7
'Cause we were only children then

                            Bm7
For laughs I guess we both can say

'I knew YOU when'

                          Amaj7
But then again, that's kiss and tell

[Verse 3]

Dmaj7
Hello like before

I guess it's different

 C#m7
'Cause we know each other now

                         Bm7
I guess I've always known

We'd meet again somehow

                      Amaj7
So THEN it might as well be now
