Selection chords: Katie Paterson

Intro: E

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

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

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

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

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

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

Post-chorus:
          E B C#m A
All over again

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

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