Stranger

Capo: 3rd fret

[Intro]
Em Bm D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D Am
(2x)

[Verse 1]
Em Bm
Something’s livin’ here beside us, hovering around this place
D Am
Something’s breathing up the air, something’s filling up the empty space
Em Bm
It’s the honesty hiding, in the words we never say
D Am
Standing in the dark crying, trying not to fade away

[Chorus]
C Am
I know right now it’s too hard to say these things out loud
Em
But if we don’t break it down
D Dsus4 D
Gotta find a way to turn it down
Am C/B C
Through the noise it’s been getting hard to hear your voice
Em
It’s such a lonely sound
D Dsus4
Gotta find a way to turn it down
D Bm C
It’s the silence that will drown us out

[Interlude]
Em Bm D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D Am

[Verse 2]
Em Bm
Every day’s a distant friend but the night is like an enemy
D Am
Am I a stranger in this bed or is the stranger lying next to me
Em Bm
I’ve been giving just enough, having promised you the best of me
D Am
Just a shadow of our love, no that’s not what we need

[Bridge] (palm muted)
C D
I can feel the water rising now
Bm C
What you’re holding on to, let it out
C D Bm C
Even if the star comes falling down, falling down, falling down
C D
I can feel the water rising now
Bm C
What you’re holding back just let it out
C D Bm C
Even if the star comes falling down, falling down, falling down

You say you broke down into a million pieces Walking our hometown, those empty places Streets that we used to play, before we both moved away, one day Back then the whole world was wide and open We had the wildest dreams that kept us hoping No matter what you choose, there's always something you lose, someday The further and further you go, the stronger the pull You run and you run, do you know why you're running at all? When you're homesick, maybe you've forgotten where your home is Sometimes we all get lost and we don't notice Someone's right here for you When you're homesick, just don't ever think that you're the only One who's gotten good at never showing that they're lonely Yeah, I know how it feels when you're homesick The sand in your hand, it slowly slips away Remember old friends like it was yesterday You can turn back the time, so you see that it's fine, it's fine The further and further you go, the stronger the pull You run and you run, do you know why you're running at all? When you're homesick, maybe you've forgotten where your home is Sometimes we all get lost and we don't notice Someone's right here for you When you're homesick, just don't ever think that you're the only One who's gotten good at never showing that they're lonely Yeah, I know how it feels when you're homesick Are you a stranger to yourself? Wondering where you're from, wondering who you are Who ever thought your hungry heart would pull you back this way Right back to the start When you're homesick, maybe you've forgotten where your home is Sometimes we all get lost and we don't notice Someone's right here for you When you're homesick, just don't ever think that you're the only One who's gotten good at never showing that they're lonely Yeah, I know how it feels when you're homesick When you're homesick When you're homesick When you're homesick
