Intro 2x: E G#m E G#m C#m B A

E      G#m            E G#m
         I walked home,  you drove off.
C#m B  A
        you probably slept more than i did.
E      G#m                 E  G#m
         the monkey wrench inside my chest
C#m B  A
        told me not to run.

E      G#m           E       G#m       C#m
           from a stranger to a stranger:
B            A
        "why don't we talk a while?
E
        I've got nothing to lose
                C#m       B        A
        but the chance to make you smile."

( E G#m E G#m C#m B A )(2x)

E      G#m           E G#m
         just be calm, just be cool,
C#m B         A
        and i won't make any sudden moves.
E          G#m             E
        and while you wait
            G#m           C#m B    A
        I'll try to say         a joke or two you haven't heard.

E      G#m             E    G#m
           from a stranger to a stranger:
C#m B       A
        "we both could do much worse.

E      G#m        E      G#m          C#m
          so i hope that one of these nights
               B         A             B
        you'll use that number in your purse

                         A
        cuz lonliness is who i know.
     B                                  A
        perhaps he's someone you know,

a mutual friend of ours."

E      G#m         E    G#m
          I'm a nerd,    you're a queen.
C#m B      A
        so how about a date?
E         G#m       E      G#m
        i didn't know you saw the show.
C#m B     A
        i thought i saw you leave.

E      G#m             E    G#m       C#m
           from a stranger to a stranger:
B                A
        "I could use a ride back home."

E      G#m             E          G#m
           I could point out the stars
               C#m           B     A      B
        and we won't have to sleep alone, alone.
                          A
        this lonliness is who i know.
     B                                  D
        perhaps he's someone you know,
A

        there's a million words
                        E                       B
        that i've been saving for a rainy day,
                      F#                 A
        and a million tricks that i could use,
                        C#m
        and i'd use them all at once
         B
        if that's what i have to do.

F#                    A
        i'll find a way to make you stay,
E                               B
        at least until i find another reason, anyway.

        since my first day of school.
               C#m                 B                      A
