[Intro]
A E D
A E D
A E D
A E D
[Verse]
A E D
It's pretty cold in Nashville
A E D
Mid-November
Bm
I don't ever remember
A E D
Another winter quite this cold
Bm
Except for January 2003
F#m
We were young and hungry, running like thieves
D
But the fortune that we had
E
Could not be be told
[Verse]
A E D
Oh everybody said
A E D
We were wasting our time
Bm
But I don't wanna die with ya
A E D
'Til you were cooking on the line
Bm
I was young, I had a chip on my shoulder
F#m
You were tall, maybe five years older
D
We got drunk and made love
E
On the very first night
[Chorus]
F#m D
Oh love and pain, it comes in waves
A C#
But it was quite nothing those early days
F#m D
We were wild as wolves my darling
A E D
We were strays
A E D
We were strays
A E D
A E D
[Verse]
A E D
Where we didn't have no money
A E D
And the heat was off
Bm
All that December we shared
A E D
A twin bed and a cough
Bm
You were skinny but full of hunger
F#m
I was wise, just five years younger
D
Couple of drop-outs, oh
E
But we still got off
[Verse]
A E D
No two week notice
A E D
Yeah we slipped through the cracks
Bm
Leave in the middle of the night
A E D
With the clothes on our backs
Bm
Can't be a loser with nothing to lose
F#m
And beggars are choosers with nothing to choose
D
We didn't buy in to sell out
E
We got out while we can
[Chorus]
F#m D
No it ain't luck and baby it ain't fate
A C#
To just follow your gut and be up and wait
F#m D
Maybe there's a little something there
A E D
For all the strays
A E D
We were strays
A E D
We were strays
A E D
We were strays
A E D A E D A E D
Oh we were straaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaays
A E D A D A
We were strays
