G                     G/F#           Em
It's too cold in this downtown apartment
G                  G/F#         Em   C
No furniture so we sit on the carpet
G                  G/F#
Heating's gone so we fill the bath 
   Em               C
with boiling water from the kettle
G                D             G
What a beautiful way to start this
G                G/F#               Em
I just met you today for the first time
G                  G/F#                 Em   C
All I know is your name and your birth sign
G                G/F#
I've not got any curtains to draw 
Em                 C
only a mattress sat on the floor
G                     D             G
Won't you lay with me darling all night?
                C            D
And I've got a movie we can watch,
          G     G/F#       Em
we'll eat popcorn from a coffee cup
         C         G          D
Not the fanciest place, this home
             G
Down in the downtown apartment 
         G/F#
is where two broken hearts went 
                Em            C         D        G
to see what it feels like to fall for a stranger
             G
Caught in a landslide of something
            G/F#
Darling now I'm asking one thing:
                 Em            C         D        G
is this what it feels like to fall for a stranger?
G                   G/F#          Em
I feel love in this north London flat
G                   G/F#        Em   C
Only God knows where I found it at
G                    G/F#
Maybe fate pulled me into the pub
Em                          C
Just to meet someone who'd give me their love
G                     D              G
I just liked how you kissed me like that
G                    G/F#        Em
Never thought I'd be taking you home
G                 G/F#      Em   C
I assumed I'd be sleeping alone
G                 G/F#
'pologies for the mess that I've made
 Em                       C
I wasn't expecting you'd stay at my place
G                 D             G
What a beautiful way to start this
               C                D
And I've got a t-shirt you can wear,
            G    G/F#       Em
and just a blanket that we both can share
         C         G          D
Not the fanciest place, this home
             G
Down in the downtown apartment 
         G/F#
is where two broken hearts went 
                Em            C         D        G
to see what it feels like to fall for a stranger
             G
Caught in a landslide of something
            G/F#
Darling now I'm asking one thing:
                 Em            C         D        G
is this what it feels like to fall for a stranger?
               Am7        D
And I've been longing to see
                 G   G/F#  Em
what's meant for you and   me
          C              D                    G
but all along I've been falling for a stranger
