G#m

Tuned half a step down

[Intro]

B G#m E B G#m E F# B F#

[Verse 1]

B F# G#m

My inner monologue is writing

B F# G#m

S.O.S on deserted Islands

B F# G#m

And there's no one out there to read the signs

B F# G#m

Just distant oceans and great blue skies

B G#m E

But my miserable memory is making me more miserable

B G#m

My mundane mind is waiting on some kind of miracle

E F# B F# G#m

(oh)â

[Chorus]

B F# G#m

Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever

B E F# B F# G#m

Maybe it's for the best we pretend like we never met

B F# G#m

Forget everything that we've ever known

B F# B

Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever

Strangers Forever

[Verse 2]

B F# G#m

Well I built a raft out of total desperation

B F# G#m

And I got kidnapped by a pirate nation

B F# G#m

Now somewhere out there I ramble and roar

B F# G#m

You wouldn't recognize me anymore

B F# G#m

But if i come into your periphery

B F# G#m

Please just act like you don't see me

B F# G#m

Out here looking for a glimpse of shore

B F# G#m E F# B F# G#m

A mirage of the life that we had before

[Chorus]

B F# G#m

Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever

B E F# B F# G#m

Maybe it's for the best we pretend like we never met

B F# G#m

Forget everything that we've ever known

B F# B

Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever
