[Verse 1]
Em C
I was 16 with a rocket
G
And some sunshine in my pocket
Em C G
It was how you used words I didn't know
Em C
And the way you said my name
G
And cut up peaches and them brown eyes
Em C G D
Lit a flame that we pretend doesn't glow
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G
You know space and time wouldn't let you be mine
C D
What I've come to understand
Em C G D
Is entropy wouldn't leave you to me
C D
I'm right back where I began
[Chorus]
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Em C G
Holding her closely, remember your touch
Em C G
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
Em C G D
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
[Verse 2]
Em C
There were times I think about us
G
Overcome by the nostalgias
Em C G
I am on call when you need me, let me know
Em C
But we're drifting in a strange way
G Em
I'm aware that it's mistake if I love you
C G
It's a mistake if I don't
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G
You know space and time wouldn't let you be mine
C D
What I've come to understand
Em C G D
Is entropy wouldn't leave you to me
C D
I'm right back where I began
[Chorus]
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Em C G
Holding her closely, remember your touch
Em C G
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
[Bridge]
D C
And she smelled like Michigan
Em
And it felt like lust
C
And the nostalgia's killing me
D
And it's all because
[Chorus]
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Em C G
Holding her closely, remember your touch
Em C G
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
Em C D
In the arms of a stranger, stranger, stranger
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
Em C G
Holding her closely, remember your touch
Em C G
And I'm wrapped around your finger, even though I'm knocked up
Em C G
In the arms of a stranger, pretending it's love
