The Moment I Knew(Chords)

	        

Intro: Cadd9 G D 

              Cadd9                    
You should've been there,  
          G 
Should've burst through the door  
           D                     
With that 'Baby I'm right here' smile  
                Cadd9 
And it would've felt like  
  G                      D 
A million little shining stars had just aligned  
                      Cadd9   G  D 
And I would've been so  happy 


          Cadd9 
Christmas lights glisten  
            G 
I've got my eye on the door  
     D                       
Just waiting for you to walk in  
            Cadd9 
But the time is ticking 
       G                    
People ask me how I've been, as I  
D 
Comb back through my memory 
             Cadd9   G     D 
How you said you'd be  here  
         Cadd9    G  D 
You said you'd, be  here 


                     Cadd9   G 
And it was like slow motion  
         D                  
Standing there in my party dress 
       Cadd9     G 
In red lipstick 
     D 
With no-one to impress 
                Cadd9     G 
And they're all laughing  
       D 
As I'm looking around the room 
                        Cadd9   G 
But there was one thing missing 
    D -once 
And that was the moment I knew 


Cadd9 G D 
Cadd9 G D 


              Cadd9 
And the hours pass by, 
           G 
Now I just want to be alone, 
         D 
But your close friends always seem to know  
                       Cadd9  
When there's something really wrong  
        G                       D 
So they follow me down the hall  
          Cadd9  
And there in the bathroom  
      G                  
I try not to fall apart  
        D 
And the sinking feeling starts  
                                 Cadd9 G     D 
As I say hopelessly 'He said he'd   be here' 


                     Cadd9   G 
And it was like slow motion  
         D                  
Standing there in my party dress 
       Cadd9     G 
In red lipstick 
     D 
With no-one to impress  
                Cadd9     G 
And they're all laughing  
    D 
And asking me about you 
                        Cadd9   G 
But there was one thing missing 
    D  
And that was the moment I knew 


Cadd9 
What do you say when tears are  
G 
Streaming down your face in front of 
D  
Everyone you know? 
Cadd9 
And what do you do  
                 G 
When the one who means the most to you  
D -once 
Is the one who didn't show? 


Cadd9 G D 


              Cadd9     G D               
You should've been here,  
                      Cadd9   G  D 
And I would've been so  happy 



                     Cadd9   G 
And it was like slow motion  
         D                  
Standing there in my party dress 
       Cadd9     G 
In red lipstick 
     D 
With no-one to impress 
                Cadd9             G 
And they're all sitting around me singing  
 D 
'Happy Birthday To You' 
                        Cadd9   G 
But there was one thing missing 
    D  
And that was the moment I knew 



Cadd9    G    D 
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, I knew 
Cadd9    G    D 
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, 


              Cadd9 
You called me later  
               G                    
And said, 'I'm sorry I didn't make it' 
    D  
And I said, 'I'm sorry too' 
                 Cadd9    G   D 
And that was the moment I knew
