[G][B][Em][G][B][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]We [B]were seventee[Em]n,
first [G]time [B]away fro[Em]m home
[Am]You lived down t[D]he hall
[Am]Went to school [D]in [G]Oshawa
[B]Days would [Em]go by,
you'd [G]never [B]leave your roo[Em]m
[Am]I'd ask what was wrong[D]
[Am]You just laughed and said, "c'[D]mon"

[Verse 2]
[C]But it's easy for me [Em]to say
[Am]I'm not alone with those c[G]onversations
[C]That you have with yoursel[Em]f all day[Am]
And I get it when you [D]need [C]escaping
When it gets [G]too [Am]much
[C]I love you like my [G]own[Am] blood
So don't be a stranger
[G]Da [B]da [Em]da[D][B][Em]

[Verse 3]
And [G]no one ever [B]knew how you
[Em]two could ever be related
[G]You were always [B]delicate
Des[Em]pite a father with no patience
[Am]I returned his[D] call, I tried to [Am]say,
"it's nobody's [D]fault"

[Verse 4]
[C]It's easy for me [Em]to say
[Am]I'm not alone with those c[G]onversations
[C]That you have with yoursel[Em]f all day
[Am]But I get it when you
[D]need [C]escaping
When it gets [G]too [Am]much
[C]I love you like my [G]own[Am] blood
So don't be a stranger
[G][B]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Da da da[G][B][Em]
It's [D]10 pm, you've been drinking
You're [C]holding court and [Bm]put
ting on [Am]a show[C][Em]
All [D]the talent, but its a balance
I [F]can't tell you [C]anything
[D]you don't already know
[G]I c[B]an't predict[Em] the nex
[G]t time [B]it'll hit[Em]
And the [Am]urge comes on [D]strong
To pack it [Am]in and diss[D]olve

[Verse 6]
[C]It's easy for me [Em]to say
[Am]I'm not alone with those c[G]onversations

[Am]But I get it when you need[D] escap[C]ing
When it get[Bm]s too [Am]much[C]
When it gets [Bm]too m[Am]uch
[C]I know it gets t[G]oo much[Am]
What have you been [D]taking?

Don't be [G]a stranger[B][Em]
Don't be [G]a stranger[B][Em]
Don't be a stranger
