Verse 1:

D                               F#m
This should be a night to be remembered;
         Bm                 D
We’ll remember, you can be sure of that. 
G                              Bm
On and on we walk out to the crowd,
     A                G
Unexpected, you're expected. 


Verse 2:
D                                        F#m
No one else will know that you've been crying. 
  Bm                              D
Think of where we are and who we care. 
       G                                  Bm
They should have hired someone who could sing
               A
Just a little better,
              G
Prince controversy.


Chorus:
D                                    Bm
I should feel we're going somewhere better, 
       A  G
But I don't... 
D                                Bm
Why should we be anything but strangers
     A                   G
In clothes that we don't own?

Verse 3:
   D                               F#m
I just realized this has been the first time 
       Bm                           D
We've seen each other's vulnerability. 
 G                               Bm
Somewhere between hello and goodbye
                    A
There is something serious 
        G
That we always missed .


Chorus:
D                                    Bm
I should feel we're going somewhere better, 
       A  G
But I don't... 
D                                Bm
Why should we be anything but strangers
     A                   G
In clothes that we don't own?


Bridge:
F#m G  A   Bm
Ohh... ohh...
F#m G  A   Bm G
Ohh... ohh...


Verse 4:
D                                 F#m
Drifting in and out, a priest is talking 
 Bm                            D
Something about a body from a bone.
    G                             Bm 
A thinking man said I could never be 
          A                 G
Half as close to you as you are to me.


Chorus:
D                                     Bm
I should feel it all leads somewhere better, 
       A  G
But I don't...
D                                Bm
Why should we be anything but strangers 
     A                   G
In clothes that we don't own?
D                                      Bm 
I should feel we'll get to some place better, 
       A  G
But I don't...
D                                Bm
Why should we be anything but strangers
     A                   G
In clothes that we don't own?


Outro:
   F#m G  A   Bm
   Ohh... ohh...
   D
   Ohh...
