Mary Chapin Carpenter – The Night We Never Met (Guitar)

       D
On the night we never met I saw you standing

                                   Em
In a crowded station waiting for a train

         A
Or maybe you were staring out from a café

                            D
And I was walking by in the rain

                                           A
Did I make you up or did my eyes deceive me?

        D                           G
Did you pause just long enough to almost see?

Em               A
One star-crossed lover

          Bm          E
Who keeps missing the other

  G            A            D
A random spark not meant to be

        F#
Were we ships destined to pass?

        Bm              A
All the dreams, all the laughs

        E                       A
All the years not growing old together

        F#
Was the hour too late?

    Bm               A
Did chance mess with fate

        E            G    A D
Leaving us forever untethered?

        D
Now I'm often quiet but I'm always listening

                                           Em
And if I can't be strong, I hope that I am kind

           A
But I keep thinking some part of me is missing

                                 D   A
And I miss it because you're not mine

   D              A           D      A
Is love simply an accident of timing?

     D                         G
A collision of coincidence and yet

        Em         A
Ancient history or mystery

  Bm           Em
I wish you had kissed me

       G          A        D
On the night that we never met

D
Mmm, mmm

        Em         A
Ancient history or mystery

  Bm           E
I wish you had kissed me

       G          A        Bm
On the night that we never met

       G          A        D     A  D  A  D
On the night that we never met
