Intro: 
Cmaj7      Em  G  Cmaj7 
Em  G 


 
Cmaj7 
Time stamped and broken 
                              Em    G 
Taken every other step in the shade 
Cmaj7 
And I'd raise my voice loud 
                              Em 
But you wouldn't hear it anyway 
 

 
                       Cmaj7 
Maybe I'm the hopeless son 
                                         Em  D 
Waiting on the rain to come and wash me away 
                 Cmaj7 
Shattered by the only one 
                                                 Em   D  Cmaj7 
That could ever make a dead heart run, strung by lace 
 

 
Cmaj7                       Em 
Hung and framed, I'm so confused 
                             D                        Cmaj7 
When the only place left for me, it ain't next to you 
                        Em 
A world away, far from view 
                D 
Nailed to your door, you'd still stare right through 
 

 
   Cmaj7 
My life as it passed by 
Cmaj7 
Steady as a wall when you walk by 
                   Em   D 
Am I a stranger to you? 
              Cmaj7 
And just like chalk on a state line 
Cmaj7 
Staring straight ahead as you drive by 
                   Em 
Am I a stranger to you? 
 

Interlude: 
D  Cmaj7     Em  D  Cmaj7 


 
Cmaj7 
Spun out and smoking 
                       Em    D 
There's only myself to blame 
Cmaj7 
And I'm slowly loathing 
                          Em  D 
There's gotta be another way 
 

 
                       Cmaj7 
Maybe I'm the hopeless son 
                                         Em  D 
Waiting on the rain to come and wash me away 
                 Cmaj7 
Shattered by the only one 
                                                 Em   D  Cmaj7 
That could ever make a dead heart run, strung by lace 
 

 
Cmaj7                       Em 
Hung and framed, I'm so confused 
                             D                        Cmaj7 
When the only place left for me, it ain't next to you 
                        Em 
A world away, far from view 
                D 
Nailed to your door, you'd still stare right through 
 

 
   Cmaj7 
My life as it passed by 
Cmaj7 
Steady as a wall when you walk by 
                   Em   D 
Am I a stranger to you? 
              Cmaj7 
And just like chalk on a state line 
Cmaj7 
Staring straight ahead as you drive by 
                   Em   D  Cmaj7    Em  D 
Am I a stranger to you? 
 

Outro: 
            Cmaj7 
Darling, my life has passed by 
Cmaj7 
Steady as a wall when you walk by 
                   Em   D 
Am I a stranger to you? 
          Cmaj7 
Just like chalk on a state line 
Cmaj7 
Staring straight ahead as you drive by 
                   Em   D  C 
Am I a stranger to you?
