[Opening]
[G]So much has happened, think of [D]what we’ve done
And the [Em]time that the Earth has traveled [C]around the Sun
[G]Winter, spring, summer an’ we’re [D]back to fall
[Em]We’ve been together hand-in-hand [C]through it all
From the [G]minute we kissed and my [D]heart skipped a beat
To the [Em]night that we danced, I was [Cm]swept off my feet
Sure as [G]every year has to [D]come to an end
I’d go s[Em]pinning ’round the Sun with you [C]again
And again and again and again

[chorus]
[G]I think I kinda, you [D]know
[Em]I think I kinda, you [C]know
[G]Like the way that we [D]flow
[Dm]Like the way that we [C]go
And I [Cm]love

[chorus]
I think I kinda, you [G]know
I think I kinda, you [D]know
I think I kinda, you [B7]know
You know, you [C]know

[verse 2]
[G]Sometimes you know exactly [D]what to say
Then ya [Em]open your mouth and the [C]words go away
[G]Don’t want you to wonder or [D]doubt or guess
So [Em]let me tell ya clearly what I’m [C]tryna express

[verse 3]
It’s just [G]three little words, yeah, it’s [D]not a big deal
It’s not [Em]like I can help feeling [Cm]all that I feel
And by [G]now, I’m sure ya think it’s [D]so obvious
But [Em]just in case it’s not, what I’m [C]saying
Is this, what I’m saying is this

[chorus]
[G]I think I kinda, you [D]know
[Em]I think I kinda, you [C]know
[G]Like the way that we [D]flow
[Dm]Like the way that we [C]go
And I [Cm]love

[chorus]
I think I kinda, you [G]know
I think I kinda, you [D]know
I think I kinda, you [B7]know
You know, you [C]know

[verse 4]
[D]You know how we can [Em]talk all night
And [B7]not run outta things to [C]talk about
[D]It’s rare that something [Em]feels this right
It [C]feels so right

[verse 5]
I think I kinda, you [A]know
I think I kinda, you [Db7]know
You know, you [D]know
I think I kinda, you [A]know
(Oh, I think I kinda, you know)
[E]I think I kinda, you [Db7]know
You [D]know, you know

[Closing]
[E]I can’t help dreaming [Gbm]of you
Guess I’m [Db7]saying I don’t not [D]love you
You [Gbm]know, you [E]know, you [D]know
