Standard (EADGBE)

When the stars line up

and you catch a good break

and people think your lucky

but you know it's grace

it can happen so fast

or a little bit late

 timing is everything

you know I've had close calls

when it could have been me

i was young when i learned just

how fragile life could be

i lost friends of mine

i guess it wasn't my time

 timing is everythnig

and i could have been a child that got took home

and i would have been one more unfinished song

 and when it seems a rhyme is hard to find

 that's when one comes along

 just in time

well I remember that day

when our eyes first meet

you ran into the building to get out of the rain

cause you were soaking we

and as i held the door

you wanted to know my name

 timing is everything

and i could have been another minute late

and you never would have crossed my path that day

 and when it seems true love is hard to find

 that's when love comes along

just in time

well you can call it fate

or destiny

sometimes it really seems like

it's a mystery

cause you can be hurt by love

or healed by the same

 timing is everything

and it can happen so fast

or a little bit late

 timing is everything
