It's too cold in this downtown 
         Em
apartment
G                  G/F#         
No furniture so we sit on the 
Em   C
carpet
G                  G/F#
Heating's gone so we fill the bath
   Em               C
with boiling water from the kettle
G                D             G
What a beautiful way to start this

G                G/F#            
I just met you today for the 
   Em
first time
G                  G/F#          
All I know is your name and your 
       Em   C
birth sign
G                G/F#
I've not got any curtains to draw
Em                 C
only a mattress sat on the floor
G                     D          
Won't you lay with me darling all
   G
 night?

                C            D
And I've got a movie we can watch,
          G     G/F#       Em
we'll eat popcorn from a coffee cup
         C         G          D
Not the fanciest place, this home

Down in the downtown apartment
         G/F#
is where two broken hearts went
                Em            C   
to see what it feels like to fall 
      D        G
for a stranger
             G
Caught in a landslide of something
            G/F#
Darling now I'm asking one thing:
                 Em            C  
is this what it feels like to fall
       D        G
 for a stranger?

G                   G/F#      
I feel love in this north London 
    Em
flat
G                   G/F#        
Only God knows where I found it 
Em   C
at
G                    G/F#
Maybe fate pulled me into the pub
Em                          C
Just to meet someone who'd give me 
their love
G                     D          
I just liked how you kissed me 
    G
like that
G                    G/F#        Em
Never thought I'd be taking you home
G                 G/F#      Em   C
I assumed I'd be sleeping alone
G                 G/F#
'pologies for the mess that I've 
made
 Em                       C
I wasn't expecting you'd stay at my 
place
G                 D             G
What a beautiful way to start this

               C                D
And I've got a t-shirt you can wear,
            G    G/F#       Em
and just a blanket that we both can 
share

               Am7        D
And I've been longing to see
                 G   G/F#  Em
what's meant for you and   me
          C              D        
but all along I've been falling 
            G
for a stranger
