[Verse 1]
Em D G
You were the deep well
C Em
in earth-and-ocean class
D G
and on the days you showed

I’d try to make you laugh.

[Verse 2]

And then we met again at university

on my parents’ porch that night
Em D G
it was love

and it kept moving.
[Bridge]
Em
I know you oh so well
C C C
since we were 15
Em
so well I feel my joints
C C C
when your weather’s shifting.
Em Em
I’ll be your confidante
C C C
across the continent.
Em
You may one day be queen
C
but to me you’ll always be that
[Chorus]
Em D G C
strange girl.
Em D G C
You're a strange girl
Em D G C
strange girl
Em D G C
You're a strange girl
[Outro]
Em D
I know you oh so well
G C
since we were 15
Em D
so well I feel my joints
G C
when your weather’s shifting.
Em D
I’ll be your confidante
G C
across the continents.
Em D
You may one day be queen
G C Em
but to me you’ll always be that strange girl.
