Strangers Almanac
Intro: Dsus2
Dsus2 G6 add9 A sus4
Know the cabs here they cant run down to your house
G6 add9 A sus4 G6 add9 Dsus2
Sometimes Ill sit and wish I were somewhere else
Dsus2 G6 add9 A sus4
So lets dim the daylights for us sweethearts that we are
G6 add9 A sus4 G6 add9 Dsus2
Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms
A sus4/E F# m7#5 G6 add9
All the sweethearts of the world
A sus4 A sus4/E
Are out dancing in the places
F# m7#5 G6 add9 A sus4
Where me and all my friends go to hide our faces
Dsus2 (Descending bass line F# to A to D on D string)
Avenues run one way
Dsus2 (Descending bass line F# to A to D on D string)
Streets they run the same
Dsus2 ( Hold F# and then hit A)
Something in the air here
Dsus2
Still keeps me away
