[Verse]
A D
Saw the night give way
E A
Where the light was golden
A D
So I took my leave
E A
all that I was holding
[Pre-Chorus]
A F#m
Darling, come the day
F#m D
When your nightmares fall
D A
I'll be on that first plane home
C#7 F#m
We'll outrun them all
F#m Bm
Well, I guess it's sweet
Bm E A
We still live like strangers in the street
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
A D
It's the cruelest thing
E A
When the word is spoken
A D
I swear it's a sin
E A
To see you heartbroken
[Pre-Chorus]
A F#m
Darling, come the day
F#m D
It's too much to breathe
D A
I'll hold this space for you
C#7 F#m
And I won't let you leave
F#m Bm
I will keep the beat
Bm E A
We'll still move like strangers in the street
[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus]
A F#m
Darling, come the time
F#m D
When you slip away
D A
I'll be that whispered word
G# C#7 F#m
That hangs around your doorway
F#m Bm
Our tale complete
Bm E A (Hold)
We'll still dance like strangers in the street
