The bass and piano lines outline the chords, so it's pretty easy to follow.
Ain't it strange
How everybody says 'I Love You'
Aint it a shame
How a word can tell you
More than words can say
I need you here
Ain't it strange
Cuz Im always thinking of ya
Ain't it a shame
How a thought can catch
The breeze and blow away
And leave you here
Oh but I know
How bad it can get (bad it can get)
But I dont mind baby
I don't mind
What I know
How soon we'll forget but
Time keeps wearin baby
Time takes care of me
Aint it strange
How a man who lives for nothing
Can change
Cuz if he stays the same
He'll die a million days
Year by year
Theres a train (drum drum drum)
At the bottom of the ocean
And when it rains
We'll get close to where the water meets the sky
For you and i
Oh but I don't know
How far this can go (bad it can get)
But i dont mind baby
I don't mind
Theres no use in saying
What you've been spraying
Even strangers know how
Strange it can be
We're only getting old
F#m (Abm) E
Cuz that's what we were told to do
But they say we're getting through
F#m (Abm)
But what's that got to do
With us?
So come on and work it out ...
