[Verse 1]
A E B
Every once in a while it hits me
A E B
Like a bullet I can only really hope it'll miss me
A E
You're hoping for a change
B
But I hope you stay the same
F#m C#m B
But am I gonna wreck it if I speak my mind,
[Chorus]
A
When you're not there
E B
Oh, I get scared that you'll become a stranger
A E B
That you'll become a stranger
A
When you're not there
E B
Out of the blue I don't recognize you
G#m F#m
I guess it's human nature
C#m B
That you'll become a stranger
[Post-Chorus]
A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
G#m A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
[Verse 2]
A E B
When you get on a plane, remember
A E B
Neither one of us can keep this all together
A E
And the road you're walking down
B
Will it bring you back around?
G#m F#m C#m B
Ohh-ohh, I got a funny feeling that we're out of time
F#m C#m B
But am I gonna wreck it if I speak my mind,
[Chorus]
A E
When you're not there
B
I get scared that you'll become a stranger
G#m A E B
That you'll become a stranger
G#m A
When you're not there
E B
And out of the blue I don't recognize you
G#m F#m
I guess it's human nature
C#m B
That you'll become a stranger
[Post-Chorus]
A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
[Bridge]
F#m G#m A
When you're up in the clouds
B C#m
I won't bring you down
B
I won't bring you down
F#m G#m A
but you didn't stick around
B C#m
I won't bring you down
B
I won't bring you down
[Chorus]
A
When you're not there
E B
Oh, I get scared that you'll become a stranger
A E B
That you'll become a stranger
G#m A
When you're not there
E B
And out of the blue I don't recognize you
G#m F#m
I guess it's human nature
C#m B
That you'll become a stranger
[Post-Chorus]
A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
G#m A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
E A
Don't become a stranger
E B
Don't become a stranger
G#m A
Don't become a stranger
E B
