Chords with lyrics
Strangers When We Meet
By David Bowie
A augmentedA
All my friends
Now seem so thin and frail
E MajorE
Slinky secrets
D/F#D/F#
Hotter than the sun
A augmentedA
No peachy prayers
No trendy rechauffe
E MajorE
I'm with you
D/F#D/F#
So I can't go on
Chorus:
E MajorE
All my violence
D MajorD A augmentedA
Raining tears upon the sheet
E MajorE
I'm bewildered/resentful
D MajorD A augmentedA
For we're strangers when we meet
A augmentedA
Blank screen TV
Preening ourselves in the snow
E MajorE
Forget my name
D/F#D/F#
But I'm over you
A augmentedA
Blended sunrise
And it's a dying world
E MajorE
Humming Rheingold
D/F#D/F#
We scavenge up our clothes
(Chorus)
E MajorE D/F#D/F#
Cold tired fingers
D(no third)
Tapping out your memories
E MajorE D/F#D/F#
Halfway sadness
D(no third)
Dazzled by the new
A augmentedA
Your embrace
Was all that I feared
E MajorE
That whirling room
D/F#D/F#
We trade by vendu
E MajorE
Steely resolve
D MajorD A augmentedA
Is falling from me
E MajorE
My poor soul
D MajorD A augmentedA
All bruised passivity
E MajorE
All your regrets
D MajorD A augmentedA
Ride rough-shod over me
E MajorE
I'm so glad
D MajorD A augmentedA
That we're strangers when we meet
E MajorE
I'm so thankful
D MajorD A augmentedA
That we're strangers when we meet
E MajorE
I'm in clover
D MajorD A augmentedA
That we're strangers when we meet
E MajorE
Heel head over
D MajorD A augmentedA
And we're strangers when we meet
