[Intro 1]
[C][G][D][C][G][D][C][G][D][C][G]
[D]
[C]It's pretty

[Verse 1]
[G]
cold in [D]Nashville[C]
[G]Mid- November
[D]I d[C]on't ever r[Am]emember
Another winter quite this cold
[G]

[Verse 2]
[D][C]
Ex[Am]cept for January 2003
We were [Em]young and hungry,
running like thieves
But the [C]fortune that we had
Could not be told
[D]

[Verse 3]
Oh, [G]everybody [D]said[C]
We were [G]wasting our [D]time[C]
But I don't [Am]wanna tell
'em we trusted you
With cooking on a [G]line[D][C]

[Verse 4]
[Am]I was young,
I had a chip on my shoulder
[Em]You were tall, maybe five years older
[C]We got drunk and made love
On the very first [D]night

[Verse 5]
Oh, [Em]love and pain, it [C]comes in waves
But it was [G]quite enough in those [B]early days
We were [Em]wild as wolves, my [C]darling
We [G]were strays[D]
[C]We were strays

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C][G][D][C][G][D][C]

[Verse 6]
Well, we [G]didn't have no [D]money[C]
And the [G]heat was [D]off[C]
[Am]Oh, that December we shared
A twin bed and a cough
[G]

[Verse 7]
[D][C]
[Am]You were skinny, but full of hunger
[Em]I was wise, just five years younger
A [C]couple of drop- outs, oh
But we still got off
[D]

[Verse 8]
No [G]sweet [D]noggins
[C]Yeah, we [G]slip through the[D] cracks[C]
[Am]Leave in the middle of the night
With the clothes on our [G]backs[D][C]

[Verse 9]
Can[Am]'t be losing with nothing to lose
And beg[Em]gars aren't choosers
with nothing to choose
[C]We didn't buy in to sell out
We got out while we can
[D]

[Verse 10]
No, [Em]it ain't luck, and,
baby, [C]it ain't fate
To just [G]follow your gut,
you'll be [B]up and away
[Em]May be there's a little something [C]there
For other strays
[G]

[Verse 11]
[D]
[C]We wer[G]e strays[D]
[C]We wer[G]e strays[D]
[C]We wer[G]e strays[D]
[C]Oh, we were [G]strays[D][C][G][D][C][G][D]
[C]We were strays
