The bass and piano lines outline the chords, so it's pretty easy to follow.


Ain't it strange

How everybody says 'I Love You'
          
Aint it a shame

How a word can tell you
                    
More than words can say
	   
I need you here


Ain't it strange

Cuz Im always thinking of ya
	   
Ain't it a shame

How a thought can catch 
		    
The breeze and blow away
		
And leave you here

	
Oh but I know
    		
How bad it can get (bad it can get)
	   
But I dont mind baby
     
I don't mind
	
What I know
		
How soon we'll forget but
	    
Time keeps wearin baby
	    	    
Time takes care of me


Aint it strange

How a man who lives for nothing
	
Can change

Cuz if he stays the same
		    
He'll die a million days
	
Year by year

Theres a train (drum drum drum)


At the bottom of the ocean
	    
And when it rains
					     
We'll get close to where the water meets the sky
	    
For you and i

	       
Oh but I don't know
    		 
How far this can go (bad it can get)
    	   
But i dont mind baby
     
I don't mind
		 
Theres no use in saying
		
What you've been spraying
	
Even strangers know how
		
Strange it can be

		      
We're only getting old
    			 ()	
Cuz that's what we were told to do
	 			
But they say we're getting through
     		()
But what's that got to do
     
With us?
			   
So come on and work it out ...
