Intro: C#5 | C#5 | C#5 | C#5
       C#5 | C#5 | C#5 | C#5

C#m
She’s got a knuckle in her eye,
             G#m7
He knows her catcall,
C#m
Can’t escape from telling lies,
  C#    C#7 G#m7
I heard her saying:

 C#                                  G#m7
   “Hey, mind if I take this chair?”
 C#                                  G#m7
   “Hey, mind if I take this chair?”

C#5
He drops a pause,
            G#m7
She looks annoyed,
C#m
But she’s so mean,
                                 G#m7
He thinks she has to be the one.

Chorus:
     F#m7         C#m7
     Taken by a stranger,
     G#m7
     Stranger things
         E             C#m  G#m7
     Are starting to begin.
     F#m7           C#m7
     Lured into the danger,
     G#m7
     Trip me up
         E              C#m   G#m7
     And spin me round again.

C#m
You got some coffee on your collar,
                            G#m7
And you forgot to comb your hair.
C#m
But I can’t wait till I do better,
                        G#m7
You’re here and I don’t care.

   C#m
   I can’t help it if you like it,
            G#m7               C#   G#m7
   ‘Cause I won’t be here tomorrow.
   C#m
   No one ever told you
            G#m7              C#  G#m7
   That you wouldn’t be rejected.

Chorus:
     F#m7         C#m7
     Taken by a stranger,
     G#m7
     Stranger things
         E             C#m  G#m7
     Are starting to begin.
     F#m7           C#m7
     Lured into the danger
     (Danger is a risky business),
     G#m7
     Trip me up
         E              C#m   G#m7
     And spin me round again.

Instrumental: A | G#

     C#m          F#m7
     Dip-dip-dada-dada-da…

Instrumental: F#m7 | A | C#m | C#m G#m7

   F#m7 G#m7  C#m
     Uh-uh-uh-uh,
     F#m7    A       C#m G#m7
     Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah…

C#m
Put the blindfold on his eyes,
                 G#m7
She saw him peek through,
C#m
Can’t imagine her disguise,
  C#    C#7 G#m7
I heard her saying:

 C#                                  G#m7
   “Hey, mind if I take this chair?”
 C#                     G#m7
   Yeah, see if I care.

Chorus:
     F#m7         C#m7
     Taken by a stranger,
     G#m7
     Stranger things
         E             C#m  G#m7
     Are starting to begin.
     F#m7           C#m7
     Lured into the danger
     (Danger is a risky business),
     G#m7
     Trip me up
         E              C#m   C#m7
     And spin me round again.
