VERSE
[B]an old beat up diner
in a [C#m11]town
Eadd2
late at night
that you're just[B] passing through
[B]you're tired and hungry
you've been [C#m11]driving far to long
yet you [Eadd9]feel
you've barely be[B]gun
as the [G#m7]waitress comes over
to [Esus2]pour you your coffee
a [G#m7]smile comes across your [F#sus4]face [F#]
she [G#m7]asks what you're having
but [Esus2]you have no answer
your [G#m7]heart just begins to [F#sus4]race [F#]
CHROUS
[B]september of [C#m11]nine - [B/D#]ty - [Eadd2]two
i met a [B]girl who
made all my [C#m11]dreams [B/D#]come [Eadd2]true
in a [G#m7]time when i needed
a [Em/G]shoulder to cry on
when [B/F#]nothing was working
she [C#7/F]took all my troubles
and [Eadd2]made them [F#]fly a[B]way [C#m11] [B/D#] [E]

VERSE
[B]you know those moments
when [C#m11]time
Eadd2
seems to stop
and start [B]turning back[C#m11] [B/D#] [Em]
[B]those special moments
when [C#m11]everything you do
Eadd2
seems so right
like it's all meant to [B]be [C#m11] [B/D#] [F#/A#]
so you [G#m7]jump without thinking
of [Esus2]what you are doing
you [G#m7]trust yet you don't know [F#sus4]why [F#]
if you [G#m7]let someone into
the [Esus2]world you've been hiding
you'll [G#m7]feel you can touch the [F#sus4]sky [F#]

BRIDGE
it's strange how jus[F#sus4]t
a simple [Eadd2]smile can change
the course of someone's [B]day
it doesn't [F#sus4]matter who it's fr[Eadd2]om or why
the outcome's just the [F#]same [C#m11]
that day i sa[B/D#]t down at this [Eadd2]booth
it was two ye[B/F#]ars ag[F#]o today[C#m11]
a waitress fil[B/D#]led with life and [Eadd2]youth
walked [F#]by [B/F#] [F#7] [B/F#] [C#m/F#]
[B/F#]and she [Cadd2]smiled [Dm11] [C11/E] [Fadd2] [F7]
you [Cadd2]smiled [Dm11] [C11/E] [Fadd2] [F7]
