We Were Strangers Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Well you never asked for much,
but I [F]loved you just the same
[G]You with your quiet eyes and
a [F]face without a [C]name
You just stood there staring
as I [F]sang another song
[C]We were strangers then,
but [G]we weren't strangers [C]long
It was all that I could do,
not to [F]turn away and hide
[G]You stared right through me as
you [F]stood there at my [C]side
The things I read in those blue eyes
[F]seemed so calm and strong
[C]We were strangers then,
but [G]we weren't strangers [C]long
Now we [F]weren't strangers long,
though we [C]never spoke at all
But [D]in your eyes I saw you knew
we were [G]heading for a fall
I [C]loved you so completely,
I never [F]thought it might be wrong
[C]We were strangers then,
[G]we weren't strangers now

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][G]
[F][C][F][G]
[C]

[Verse 2]
[C]We were strangers long,
[F]though we nev[C]er spoke at all
[G]In [D]your eyes I saw you there,
we were [G]heading for a fall
I knew [C]you so completely,
I never [F]thought it might be wrong
[C]We were strangers then,
[G]we weren't strangers [C]long
Just like a book,
but it's [F]read between the lines
It's the [G]words that weren't spoken that
[F]told me you were [C]mine
Now the pages turn but
the [F]story just goes on
[C]We were strangers then,
but [G]we weren't strangers long.

[Outro 1]
