🎶 The Moment I Knew (Taylor's version)

tone [Db]
Intro: [Cadd9] [Db] [Cb]



Verse 1:
You should've [Cadd9]been there
Should've [Db]burst through the door
With that [Cb]"Baby, I'm right here" smile
And it would've [Cadd9]felt like
A [Db]million little shining [Cb]stars had just aligned
And I would've been [Cadd9]so happy [Db] [Cb]

Verse 2:
Christmas [Cadd9]lights glisten
I've got my [Db]eye on the door
Just [Cb]waiting for you to walk in
But the time [Cadd9]is ticking
People [Db]ask me how I've been
As I [Cb]comb back through my memory
How you said [Cadd9]you'd be[Db] here[Cb]
You said [Cadd9]you'd be[Db] [Cb]here

Chorus:
And it was like [Cadd9]slow motion [Db]
Standing [Cb]there in my party dress
In red [Cadd9]lipstick [Db]
With [Cb]no one to impress
And they're all [Cadd9]laughing [Db]
As I'm [Cb]looking around the room
But there was one thing [Cadd9]missing [Db]
And [Cb]that was the moment I knew

[Cadd9] [Db] [Cb]
[Cadd9] [Db] [Cb]

Verse 3:
And the hours pass[Cadd9] by
Now I just [Db]wanna be alone
But your [Cb]close friends always seem to know
When there's something [Cadd9]really wrong
So they [Db]follow me down the hall
And there [Cadd9]in the bathroom
I try [Db]not to fall apart
And the [Cb]sinking feeling starts
As I say hopelessly
"He said he'd [Cadd9][Db]be here" [Cb]

Chorus:
And it was like [Cadd9]slow motion [Db]
Standing [Cb]there in my party dress
In red [Cadd9]lipstick [Db]
With [Cb]no one to impress
And they're all [Cadd9]laughing [Db]
And [Cb]asking me about you
But there was one thing [Cadd9]missing [Db] (missing, missing)
And [Cb]that was the moment I knew

Bridge:
[Cadd9]What do you say, when tears are [Db]streaming down your face
In front of [Cb]everyone you know?
[Cadd9]And what do you do when the one who [Db]means the most to you
[Cb]Is the one who didn't show?
You should've [Cadd9]been here, [Db][Cb]
And I would've been so[Cadd9] happy [Db][Cb]

Chorus:
And it was like slow [Cadd9]motion [Db]
Standing [Cb]there in my party dress
In red [Cadd9]lipstick [Db]
With [Cb]no one to impress
And they're all [Cadd9]standing around me [Db]singing
[Cb]"Happy birthday to you"
But there was one thing [Cadd9]missing[Db]
And [Cb]that was the moment I knew
[Cadd9]Oh, ooh, [Db]ooh, [Cb]ooh, I knew
[Cadd9] [Db] [Cb]

Outro:
You called me [Cadd9]later
And said, "I'm [Db]sorry, I didn't make it"
And [Cb]I said, "I'm sorry too"
And that was the [Cadd9]moment I [Db]knew[Cb]⠀
