Intro: C#

Verse:
C#
We were strangers at the bar
G#
They were playing "Wonderwall"
  A#m                              F#
I overheard you say you hate this song
C#
Next thing I knew, Iʼm walkinʼ over
G#
Came and tapped you on your shoulder
A#m                                      F#
Said, "My dear, youʼre not the only one"
C#
Spent the night there at my place
     G#
That night became a hundred days
    A#m                              F#
And I shared all my deepest secrets with you
C#                                     G#
Soon enough, well, I found out youʼre something I canʼt live without
    A#m                           F#
And every time I close my eyes I miss you

Pre-chorus:
      C#       G#                          A#m       F#            C#
And I know, I waited all my life just to fall for someone like you
       G#                         A#m               F#
In the blink of an eye, yeah, it all fell through

Chorus:
             C#                  G#
I canʼt even lie, Iʼm not doing well
              A#m                     F#
Waking up without you, sleeping by myself
             C#                       G#
Alone in our room, all your stuff is gone
                   A#m                             F#
Yeah, Iʼm standing still here while youʼre moving on
                    C#          G#              A#m       F#
When my world would tear in two, you were who I ran to
                 C#                    G#
Now I canʼt even call, or call you my friend
                 A#m                           F#                       C# G# A#m F#
Oh darling, itʼs strange ʼcause you and I are strangers all over again

Verse:
C#
Heartʼs amiss and headʼs a blaze
    G#
The nights become the start of days
    A#m                                F#
And Iʼve been drinking just to get me through
     C#                              G#
Itʼs funny how you love someone and when itʼs over, said and done
     A#m                         F#
Itʼs almost like you never even knew ʼem

Pre-chorus:
      C#       G#                          A#m       F#            C#
And I know, I waited all my life just to fall for someone like you
       G#                         A#m               F#
In the blink of an eye, yeah, it all fell through

Chorus:
             C#                  G#
I canʼt even lie, Iʼm not doing well
              A#m                     F#
Waking up without you, sleeping by myself
             C#                       G#
Alone in our room, all your stuff is gone
                   A#m                             F#
Yeah, Iʼm standing still here while youʼre moving on
                    C#          G#              A#m       F#
When my world would tear in two, you were who I ran to
                 C#                    G#
Now I canʼt even call, or call you my friend
                 A#m                           F#                   C# G# A#m F#
Oh darling, itʼs strange ʼcause you and I are strangers all over again

Post-chorus:
          C# G# A#m F#
All over again

Bridge:
      C#             G#                           A#m
Now I know, Iʼll be waiting all my life for someone like you

Chorus:
             C#                  G#
I canʼt even lie, Iʼm not doing well
              A#m                     F#
Waking up without you, sleeping by myself
             C#                       G#
Alone in our room, all your stuff is gone
                   A#m                             F#
Yeah, Iʼm standing still here while youʼre moving on
                    C#          G#              A#m       F#
When my world would tear in two, you were who I ran to
                 C#                    G#
Now I canʼt even call, or call you my friend
                 A#m                           F#
Oh darling, itʼs strange ʼcause you and I are strangers all over again
