[Verse 1]
A A7 Now I'd like to lay here in the night A Bm Now I'd like to linger in the light D Wishing not to move C#m I have nothing left to prove D E A G A But did I hear you asking was it wrong or right
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
[Verse 2]
A A7 Now I'd like to hover in a hole A Bm Where silence is the singer of the soul D I have no games to play C#m I have no lines to say D E A G A But someone's taking surveys on a passion poll
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
[Verse 3]
A A7 Pretending every worry has all gone A Bm Now I'd like to drift into the dawn D D As simple as it seems (Pleasures are endowed) C#m C#m Changing thoughts around to dreams (Lying lazy as a cloud) D E A G A But did I hear the stifling of a sleepless yawn
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
[Verse 4]
A A7 Now I'd like to dangle in a dream A Bm A cavalier who's courting to the queen D D Hopelessly insane (As tender as the trees) C#m C#m Running ragged through the rain (I only wish to please) D E A G A But someone's directing lovers on a silver screen
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
[Verse 5]
A A7 Now I'd live to hide behind a hand A Bm It's too late for leaving footprints on the sand D D Willing/Chilling is the wine (Gentle as the air) C#m C#m I've surrendered to the time (There's a stillness to be shared) D E A G A But someone is insisting that they understand D E A G A (But someone's disappearing into weird demand)
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
[Verse 6]
A A7 Now you've heard the story of the skin A Bm All the ashtrays have been powdered to the brim D I'd only like to fall C#m Watching whispers on the wall D E A G A But someone's making up the bed and defining sin
[Chorus]
D E F#m Oh, If you feel a little strange Bm E A Please have the memory and keep the change
