Verse 1
EmC
I was 16 with a rocket
G
And some sunshine in my pocket
EmCG
It was how you used words I didn't know
EmC
And the way you said my name
G
And cut up peaches and them brown eyes
EmCGD
Lit a flame that we pretend doesn't glow
Pre-Chorus
EmCG
You know space and time wouldn't let you be mine
CD
What I've come to understand
EmCGD
Is entropy wouldn't leave you to me
CD
I'm right back where I began
Chorus
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
EmCG
Holding her closely, remember your touch
EmCG
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
EmCGD
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Verse 2
EmC
There were times I think about us
G
Overcome by the nostalgias
EmCG
I am on call when you need me, let me know
EmC
But we're drifting in a strange way
GEm
I'm aware that it's mistake if I love you
CG
It's a mistake if I don't
Pre-Chorus
EmCG
You know space and time wouldn't let you be mine
CD
What I've come to understand
EmCGD
Is entropy wouldn't leave you to me
CD
I'm right back where I began
Chorus
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
EmCG
Holding her closely, remember your touch
EmCG
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Bridge
DC
And she smelled like Michigan
Em
And it felt like lust
C
And the nostalgia's killing me
D
And it's all because
Chorus
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
EmCG
Holding her closely, remember your touch
EmCG
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
EmCD
In the arms of a stranger, stranger, stranger
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
EmCG
Holding her closely, remember your touch
EmCG
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
EmCG
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
