~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Verse I]
G Am7
Lover I remember
C G
Laying out a map
Em C
Throwing our possessions
D Dsus4 D
In the van
G Am7
Your tapes piled on the backseat
C G
And a camera in your hand
Em C
Dressed for our arrival
D G
In the Strangeland
[Chorus]
Em G
Strangeland blind
C D
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
Em
You give no time
Am
To put things right
Em
To put things right
[Verse II]
G Am7
You drove across the border
C G
As the winter rains ran dry
Em C
And only fateful birdsong
D Dsus4 D
Filled the sky
G Am7
You threw your head back screaming
C G
As we raced across wet sand
Em C
And lept into the waters
D G
Of the Strangeland
[Chorus]
Em G
Strangeland blind
C D
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
Em
You give no time
Am
To put things right
Em
To put things right
Em Em Em
[Verse III - pluck softly]
G Am7
You wound the rope around me
C G
And you pulled the knots in tight
Em C
And shook me like a bad dream
D Dsus4 D
From your sight
G Am7
And now the things I've done to forget you
C G
Well it's not what I had planned
Em C
The sweetest thoughts get twisted
D G
In the Strangeland
[Chorus]
Em G
Strangeland blind
C D
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
C D
You give no time to put things right
D
To put things-
[Outro]
Em G
Strangeland dreams
C D
You tore my baby away from me
Em
We get no time
Am
To put things right
Em
To put things right
Em
You give no time
Am
To put things right
Em
To put things right
Am
To put things right
Em
To put things right
