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

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

Chorus:
             E                  B
I can't even lie, I'm 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, I'm standing still here while you're moving on
                     E          B
When my world would tear in two,
             C#m    A
you were who I ran to
                  E                     B
Now I can't even call, or call you my friend
                 C#m
Oh darling, it's strange 'cause you and
         A                    E B C#m A
I are strangers all over again

Heart's a mess, and head's ablaze
The nights become the starts of days
And I've been drinking just to get me through 'em
It's funny how you love someone and,
when it's over, said and done
It's almost like you never even knew 'em

And I know
I waited all my life just to
fall for someone like you
In the blink of an eye, yeah, it all fell through

Chorus

           E B C#m A
All over again

        E            B
Now I know, I'll be waiting all my life for
   C#m
someone like you

Chorus
