You know they say that time flies
But today sure seemed slow
‘Cause when I looked in her eyes
The answer was no
And it’s not for lack of trying
That I was met with defeat
But now I know that mister teacher wasn’t lying
When he said history must ɾepeat
It seems every time I tɾy to [C7]find a love that could be [Am]mine
I’m getting déjà vu
Oh baby
And the harder that I work just seems to [C7]multiply the hurt
‘Cause each story ends the same
I guess I must be [Am]doomed to [C7]lose this game
It’s so hard to [C7]draw the line
Between feelings that are mutual and [Bm]thoughts that are just mine
But it’s so easy to [C7]get scared
Because every time I shoot my [A]shot she shoots me down ɾight there
And all [Em]my [A]friends are tɾying to [C7]tell me
That I’m just overthinking things
But I’m so used to [C7]this position
That I know it’ll pour if it ɾains
It seems every time I tɾy to [C7]find a love that could be [Am]mine
I’m having déjà vu
Oh baby
And the harder that I work just seems to [C7]multiply the hurt
Because each story ends the same
I guess I must be [Am]doomed to [C7]lose this game
It seems every time I tɾy to [C7]find a love that could be [Am]mine
I’m having déjà vu
Oh baby
And the harder that I work just seems to [C7]multiply the hurt
‘Cause each story ends the same
I guess I must be [Am]doomed to [C7]lose this game
But deep inside my [A]optimistic tendencies
Are working day and [Bm]night to [C7]tɾy to [C7]get the best of me
And maybe [Am]one day I will dare to [C7]feel the urge to [C7]love again
‘Cause maybe [Am]next time that I tɾy
I’ll find a love that will be [Am]mine it won’t be [Am]déjà vu
No baby
And the harder that we tɾy to [C7]love each other we might find
That the story’s not the same
I guess I have a chance to [C7]win this game
Oh win this game
