Perfect Strangers

| C | A | C | A | Bm E C#m F#m An afternoon of sad affairs, Bm C#7 F#m A7 shared in the hope of mending broken dreams, D E/D C#m F#m the constant struggle after simple pleasures, Bm E A F# finds us perfect strangers, you and I. Bm E C#m F#m You know I hate to see you cry Bm C#7 F#m A7 and through the tears that fall like winter rain. D E/D C#m F#m You say you're tired of merely just surviving, Bm E we've so much in common that we're C D/C perfect strangers, singing perfectly in tune, Fm/C C from separate corners of the room; C D/C held together by our hunger to get by Fm/C C A perfect strangers, you and I. Bm E C#m F#m Let's make a toast to no regrets, Bm C#7 F#m A7 wet down the painful sting of sweet love lost. D E/D C#m F#m Let evening find us whispering in our whiskey, Bm E A F# come and sit beside me for a while. Bm E C#m F#m You know I love to see you smile Bm C#7 F#m A7 and if perhaps you're only passing through. D E/D C#m F#m At least we tried to reach an understanding Bm E and for just one moment we were C D/C perfect strangers, singing perfectly in tune, Fm/C C from separate corners of the room; C D/C held together by our hunger to get by Fm/C C perfect strangers, you and I. End-Chorus C D/C perfect strangers, singing perfectly in tune, Fm/C C from separate corners of the room; C D/C held together by our hunger to get by Fm/C C perfect strangers, you and I.
