VERSE: 
    G 
    I KNOW THAT HEARTS WERE LOVING 
          D 
    LONG BEFORE I WAS HERE 
    AND I'M NOT THE FIRST TO EVER CRY 
           G 
    IN MY BED OR IN MY BEER 
                 C 
    THERE WERE SONGS BEFORE THERE WAS RADIO 
         G                  Em 
    OF LOVE THAT STAYS AND LOVE THAT GOES 
               Am 
    THEY WERE WRITING MELONCHOLY TUNES 
          C                  D 
    AND TEARFUL WORDS THAT RHYME 
               G 
    BEFORE MY TIME  
   D           G 
    BEFORE MY TIME 
 
VERSE: 
    THERE WERE SONGS IN OLD DUSTY BOOKS 
    OF LOVE THATS ALWAYS BEEN 
    SWEET LOVERS IN THEIR GLORY 
    WHO ARE NOW GONE WITH THE WIND 
    OLD FASHION LOVE WORDS SPOKEN THEN 
    KEEP COMING BACK AROUND AGAIN 
    NOTHINGS CHANGED EXCEPT THE NAMES 
    THEIR LOVE BURNS JUST LIKE MINE 
    BEFORE MY TIME 
    BEFORE MY TIME 
 
BREAK: 
        C 
    AND IN THE DIM OF YESTERDAY 
    G 
    I CAN CLEARLY SEE 
           C 
    THAT FLESH AND BLOOD CRIED OUT TO SOMEONE 
    G             D 
    AS IT DOES IN ME 
                   G    
    AND THERE WAS SOME OLD SONG THAT SAID 
       C   
    I LOVE YOU 'TIL I DIE 
               G 
    BEFORE MY TIME 
   D           G 
    BEFORE MY TIME

VERSE: 
    BUT WHAT THE OLD TIME MASTERS HAD 
    IS WHAT I FEEL FOR YOU 
    LOVE IS LOVE AND DOESN'T CHANGE 
    IN A CENTURY OR TWO 
    IF SOMEWAY THEY HAD SEEN AND KNEW 
    HOW IT WOULD BE FOR ME AND YOU 
    THEY'D WISH FOR LOVE LIKE YOURS 
    AND THEY WOULD WISH FOR LOVE LIKE MINE 
    BEFORE MY TIME 
    BEFORE MY TIME
