[Verse 1]
G
I know that hearts were loving
D7
Long before I was here
D7
And I'm not the first to ever cry
G
In my bed or in my beer
[Verse 2]
C
There were songs before there was radio
G Em
Of love that stays and love that goes
C
They were writing melancholy tunes
D7
And tearful words that rhyme
G D7 G
Before my time before my time
[Verse 3]
G
There were songs in old dusty books
D7
Of love that's always been
D7
Sweet lovers in their glory
G
Who are now gone with the wind
[Verse 4]
C
Old fashion love words spoken then
G Em
Keep coming back around again
C
Nothings changed except the names
D7
Their love burns just like mine
G D7 G
Before my time before my time
[Verse 5]
C
And in the dim of yesterday
G
I can clearly see

That flesh and blood cried out to someone
G D7
As it does in me
[Bridge]
G
And there was some old song that said
C
I love you till I die
G D7 G
Before my time before my time
[Verse 5]
G
But what the old time masters had
D7
Is what I feel for you
D7
Love is love and doesn't change
G
In a century or two
[Outro]

If someway they had seen and knew
G Em
How it would be for me and you
C
They'd wish for love like yours
D7
And they would wish for love like mine
G D7 G
Before my time before my time
