B   E   B                         E 
Isn't it strange the two strangers  
B                                 E 
Suddenly don't feel so strange  
A                                 E 
It's something familiar, though this time is different  
F#m                                  B 
What they're in for feels like sea change  

          E                                 B 
Isn't it weird the two weirdos  
F#m                 A                   E 
Can wind up not feeling that weird  
A                                  E 
It's all so momentous, yet perfectly normal  
F#m                       B 
Scary but not to be feared  

B  
And it starts with a sentence  
A 
That might last a lifetime  
E 
Though it all might just  
B 
Go down in flames  

B  
If I let you know me then  
A 
Why would you want me  
E 
Each day I don't is a shame  
G                                                  B  G  
Each day I don't is a great shame  
 F#m         A              E 
Each day I don't is a great shame  


 F#m E  F#m E B  F#m B E A E F#m A  F#m B  

E                                         B 
Isn't it great that two people  
E 
Together can tear down one wall  
A                                    E 
A handwriting is on, it's not hieroglyphic  
         F#m                          B 
That barrier just has to fall  

B                                                E 
Well, isn't it sad that most people  
B                                                 E 
Stay so lonely, it's almost a crime  
A 
We might be strange weirdos  
 E 
That can't be normal  
    F#m                                           B 
To be frightened so much of our time  

G                                        B 
And it starts with a sentence  
A 
That might last a lifetime  
B 
Though it all might just  

Go down in flames  

G                       B     E 
If I let you know me then  
A                                       E 
Why would you want me?  
E                              B 
Each day I don't is a shame  
E        A       G                 A       E 
And each day I don't is a great shame
