Eb                       Bb
When you stumble and fall, get yourself off the ground
Eb                            Bb
Play your favorite song and sing it out loud
Cm          Bb             Ab            Eb
Take a deep breath and in time you'll begin
    Bb
to smile

Eb                            Bb
Listen to the wind, it's the sweetest of sounds
Eb                          Bb
Smilin' at the stranger on the underground
Cm            Bb             Ab        Eb
Every little thing that you do goes a long,
Bb
long way

[Pre-Chorus]
    Ab
But we don't talk about it
Ab                                     Eb
But isn't it good to be down here alive?
Eb7                         Ab
Something money could never buy
Ab                              Abm
It's worth more than a million roses

[Chorus]
               Eb
Oh, these are strange days
         Ab
In many strange ways
        Eb
Science fiction, I believe
      Bb
Has become reality

              Eb
Oh, these are strange times
            Ab
Lost in our minds
         Eb
We don't know, it's unclear
            Bb
Where we'll be this time next year

    Cm Bb Ab Eb/G   Bb
Oh, stra   -   nge days
Cm Bb Ab Eb/G   Bb
Stra   -   nge days

[Verse 2]
Eb                            Bb
Girls and boys are rushing to be on show
Eb                                   Bb
What's the hurry children? You're forgetting to grow
Cm               Bb          Ab
Make the best of where you begin in this
Eb    Bb
crazy world

[Pre-Chorus]
Ab
So let's talk about it
Ab
I know you sometimes hate the way that you
Eb
feel
Eb7                              Ab
Life's rough but that makes you real, oh
Ab                             Abm
It's worth more than a million roses

[Chorus]
              Eb
Oh, these are strange days
        Ab
In many strange ways
          Eb
A message to outer space
          Bb
Send help 'cause we lost our way
              Eb
Oh, these are strange times
            Ab
Lost in our minds
                 Eb
We're standing by, we can't grow
       Bb
Inside of this TV show

    Cm Bb Ab Eb/G   Bb
Oh, stra   -   nge days
Cm Bb Ab Eb/G   Bb
