Intro
D F#m A
D
did you hear the one about a joke without a punch-line
or the song about a movie of a book
F#m
like a stolen bouquet meant to be given away
A
to the girl that never gives you a look
D
well that's how I've been spending all my meantime
wondering if it's doing any harm
F#m
resetting myself to when everything felt
A
like a book I'm holding under my arm
G D
but it's not that I want back all my innocence
G E A
just the joy of losing it again
D
the favorites get their favors
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
D
the great one's all get greater
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
D
we got doctors that know everything about us
we can level cities by the end of the day
F#m
the world is turning back into dust or maybe it's just
A
we're becoming all the god's that we've praised
D
or maybe the world is finally moving on without us
while we wait to see who's winning some debate
F#m
it's like we're running a race after spinning in place
A
we're pulling left when we've been moving straight
G D
but me I think I'll keep on spinning
G E A
and smile as I hit the ground
D
the favorites get their favors
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
D
the great one's all get greater
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
Em Bm
Like a tree that doesn't look for it's root, it grows
G Bm A
Like a bird on the day that it's season is through, it knows
D
the favorites get their favors
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
D
the great one's all get greater
F#m A
and this stranger's getting stranger everyday
