In A Strangers Arms
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
A E A E
[Verse 1]
A
Weeks go so slow
E
We haven't spoken one word
A E
Been an endless summer
A
I go out and get home
E
When neighbors leaving for work
A E
I don't mind them judging
[Pre Chorus]
Bm7 D
I got nowhere to go
F#m7 E
Call everyone I know 'cause I go off when I'm alone
Bm7 D
Just get me drunk and hold me in the sun
[Chorus]
A Bm7 Bm D
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
A Bm7 Bm D
You feel you're gonna die, you're blind, it's hard to see
F#m7 Bm D
That in time you will find that you've moved on
A Bm7 Bm D
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
D A
In a stranger's arms
[Interlude]
A – E x2
[Verse 2]
A E
Spending money on things I know I don't need
A E
Cut my hair to change me
A
I'm smoking again
E
Know how much you hate it
A E
But you weren't here to tell me
[Pre Chorus]
A Bm7
I learned to live alone
D
My home is not a home
F#m7 E
No, I don't feel it on my own
Bm7 D
And when I leave I'm keepin' all lights on
[Chorus]
A Bm7 Bm D
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
A Bm7 Bm D
You feel you're gonna die, you're blind, it's hard to see
F#m7 Bm D
That in time you will find that you've moved on
A Bm7 Bm D
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
D A
In a stranger's arms
A E
In a stranger's arms
[Bridge]
A Bm7 Bm D
I don't wanna know if you have moved on
A Bm7 Bm D
And you don't wanna know if I have met somebody new
F#m7 Bm D
It's not as if I wanna run right back to you
A Bm7 Bm D
I just want time to pass so I'll get over you
[Chorus]
A Bm7 Bm D
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
A Bm7 Bm D
You feel you're gonna die, you're blind, it's hard to see
F#m7 Bm D
That in time you will find that you've moved on
A Bm7 Bm D
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
D A
In a stranger's arms
A E
In a stranger's arms,
[Outro]

I'll get over you
A E
I'll get over you
A E
In a stranger's arms

version 2
This version uses more specific chords that align with the finger picking of the guitar.
Easy version: Hit "transpose -2" and put a capo on the second fret.

version 3
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: A
This is the No capo version, although I think the original is played with capo 2.
The chord names are on top of each section if you would prefer to play it that way.
Note: The [Intro], [Interlude], and [Outro] are all identical.

Weeks go so slow
We haven't spoken one word
Been an endless summer
I go out and get home
My neighbors leaving for work
I don't mind them judging
I got nowhere to go
Call everyone I know
'Cause I go off when I'm alone
Just get me drunk and hold me in the sun
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
You feel you've gotta die, you're blind, it's hard to see
That in time you will find that you've moved on
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
In a stranger's arms
Spending money
On things I know I don't need
Cut my hair to change me
I'm smoking again
Know how much you would hate it
But you weren't here to tell me
I learned to live alone
My home is not a home
No, I don't feel it on my own
And when I leave I'm keeping all lights on
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
You feel you've gotta die, you're blind, it's hard to see
That in time you will find that you've moved on
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
In a stranger's arms
Love in a stranger's arms
I don't want to know if you have moved on
And you don't want to know if I have met somebody new
It's not as if I wanna run right back to you
I just want time to pass so I get over you
They say heartbreak always hurts the worst the first time
You feel you've gotta die, you're blind, it's hard to see
That in time you will find that you've moved on
Then you'll risk it all to feel it all like the first time
In a stranger's arms
Oh, in a stranger's arms
Ooh, ooh, I'll get over you
Oh, I'll get over you
In a stranger's arms
