Selection chords: Katie Paterson

Intro: D

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

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

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

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

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

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

Post-chorus:
          D A Bm G
All over again

Bridge:
      D             A                           Bm
Now I know, Iʼll be waiting all my life for someone like you

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