[Intro] Em C
Em            C
Don't talk to strangers

Em         C                 G               D
Oh, in the strangest dreams, walking by your side

Em        C              G               D
It is the hole that you impose upon your life

Em               C              G                D
When you're out, loneliness, it crawls up in the ground

Em            C                G             D
It's what you feel, but can't articulate out loud

        C                   G
Oh, you go to sleep on your own

        Em                      D
And you wake each day with your thoughts

       C                 G
And it scares you being alone

            Em    D
It's a last resort

Em           C             G               D
All you want is someone onto whom you can cling

Em           C                          G                D
Your mother warned of strangers and the dangers they may bring

Em              C             G             D
Your dreams and memories are blurring into one

Em              C               G                 D    C
The seams that hold the waking world have slowly come undone

              Em
You'll come undone

           C                   G
Oh oh, you go to sleep on your own,

        Em                      D
And you wake each day with your thoughts

       C                 G
And it scares you being alone,

              Em   D
It's a last resort

    C                   G
You go to sleep on your own,

        Em                      D
And you wake each day with your thoughts

       C                 G
And it scares you being alone,

              Em   D
It's a last resort

C  G  Em  D  x2
Oh

Em            C
Don't talk to strangers,

Em                  C
And don't walk into danger

Em            C
Don't talk to strangers,

Em                  C
And don't walk into danger

           C                   G
Oh oh, you go to sleep on your own,

        Em                      D
And you wake each day with your thoughts

       C                 G
And it scares you being alone,

              Em   D
It's a last resort

    C                   G
You go to sleep on your own,

        Em                      D
And you wake each day with your thoughts

       C                 G
And it scares you being alone,

            Em    D
It's a last resort

C       G  Em  D
Don't talk

   C     G  Em  D
to strangers

        C                   G
Oh, you go to sleep on your own,

Em                      D
Wake each day with your thoughts

         C              G
And it scares you being alone,

           Em   D
It's a last resort...
