Chloë and the Next 20th Century (2022) - track 10 ================================================= [INTRO] A7 Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm [VERSE I]
A7              Dm
 She says The odds are against him

A7                   Dm
 She won't break his heart

A7                         Dm
 He says, “You'll lose the one sooner or later

A7                  Dm
 Just being who you are”
[PRE-CHORUS]
Bb          C       F      Dm
 This conversation's at an impasse

Bb         C                F        Dm
 Maybe the future will look brighter undressed
[CHORUS]
F            E             Cm6       Gm
 We could be strangers for one night longer

F                    E     Cm6       Gm
 Save the trysts and tumors for tomorrow

G                      Dm/G
'Cause no one's really better off

G                Dm/G        Bbm
 No one's really better off alone
A7 Dm A7 Dm [VERSE II]
A7                   Dm
 She says, “No point speeding back to your place

A7                 Dm
 I've got no other plans”

A7                 Dm
 As they lay there bleeding on the freeway

A7                   Dm
 He takes her by the hand
[PRE-CHORUS]
Bb       C     F        Dm
“I never wanted to disappoint you

Bb             C          F       Dm
 At least I'll never even get the chance to”
[CHORUS]
F            E             Cm6       Gm
 We could be strangers for one night longer

F                    E      Cm6            Gm
 Save the trysts and tumors, the nights at home

F            E             Cm6       Gm
 We could be strangers for one night longer

F                E        Cm6        Gm
 Leave the crazy highs and the crazy lows

F            E             Cm6       Gm
 We could be strangers for one night longer

F              E         Cm6     Gm
 Who any of us are, well, nobody knows

G                      Dm
'Cause no one’s really better off

G                Dm          Bbm
 No one’s really better off alone
