[Intro]
 
Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G  Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G
 
[Verse 1]
 
      Fmaj7     G
Was a time, it wasn't good
   Fmaj7        G
It wasn't long ago
  Fmaj7        G
I thought our time had come
    Fmaj7               G
And gone the way things go
    Fmaj7      G
But now you're here with me
    Fmaj7          G
And I am here with you
    Fmaj7     G          Fmaj7        G
And I have to say that I love it this way
 
[Chorus]
                  Fmaj7
That's the way it is
                G
Back where we started
              Fmaj7
Back where we belong
                  G
That's where it ends
                  Fmaj7
That's the way it is
           G
So glad we got it
              Fmaj7
Back where we belong
             G
Right back again
 
[Interlude]
 
Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G
 
[Verse 2]
    Fmaj7        G
You changed and so did I
   Fmaj7             G
We had our things to do
    Fmaj7   G
And yes… a part of me
      Fmaj7            G
Still needed a part of you
  Fmaj7       G
I know what I had to do
Fmaj7                   Fmaj7
Where I was supposed to be
        Fmaj7    G           Fmaj7           G
And you felt the same when I called out your name
 
[Chorus]
 
                  Fmaj7
That's the way it is
                G
Back where we started
              Fmaj7
Back where we belong
                  G
That's where it ends
                  Fmaj7
That's the way it is
           G
So glad we got it
              Fmaj7
Back where we belong
             G
Right back again
 
[Bridge]
 
Am               Gadd11     C    Gadd11  C
What was old has now become new
        Fadd9         C            Dsus2       D
And the dream that I had of coming back to you
               Fmaj7
Has now become true
 
[Interlude]
 
Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G
 
[Chorus]
 
                  Fmaj7
That's the way it is
                G      Fmaj7
Back where we started
                  G
That's where it ends
                Fmaj7
Back where we belong
           G         Fmaj7
So glad we got it
             G     Fmaj7
Right back again
              Fmaj7
That's the way it is
 
[Outro]
 
Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G
 
                Fmaj7   G
Back where we belong
 
Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G   Fmaj7  G
 
Fmaj7         G
True love is never gone
Fmaj7                   G
Gotta get back where we started from
Fmaj7           G
True love will never end
Fmaj7                G
Starting right back again
Fmaj7         G
True love is never gone
Fmaj7                   G
Gotta get back where we started from
Fmaj7           G
True love will never end
Fmaj7                G
Starting right back again
