[Intro]
Em D C G
Em D C
[Verse 1]
C G
Started off
Em D
A thousand miles of interstate
C G Em D
The sun was setting right in my hands
C G
Staying up
Em D
I swore that I would be okay
C G Em D
With compromises made in my head
[Pre Chorus]
Em D C
But I lost my grip
Em D C
So I let her slip
[Chorus]
C G
We had a little love once
Em D
But now it's in danger
C G
We got a little lost, babe
C G
But that's human nature
Em D C G
Now it's too late to save us
Em D
Oh, 'cause now she's a stranger
[Instrumental]
Am G Em D x4
[Verse 2]
C G
Fake a smile
Em D
So no one else could recognize
C G
The broken heart
Em D C
That's under my skin
G
Say goodbye
Em
Tried to swim
D C
But came to find no water
G Em D
When I went diving in
[Pre Chorus]
Em D C
And I lost my grip
Em D C
So I let her slip
[Chorus]
C G
We had a little love once
Em D
But now it's in danger
C G
We got a little lost, babe
C G
But that's human nature
Em D C G
Now it's too late to save us
Em D
Oh, 'cause now she's a stranger
[Instrumental]
Am G Em D x5
[Bridge]
Am G Em D Am G
Now we're back to where we started
Em D Am D
Now we're back to where we started
G Em D
(Right back to strangers)
[Chorus]
C G
We had a little love once
Em D
But now it's in danger
C G
We got a little lost, babe
C G
But that's human nature
Em D C G
Now it's too late to save us
Em D
Oh, 'cause now she's a stranger
[Instrumental]
Am G Em D G
