intro:
A5    E5

Verse:
            A5               E5
Strange how you know inside me
  F#5         F#5              D5              D5
I measure the time and I stand amazed
            A5        E5
Strange how I know inside you
   F#5        F#5                 D5           D5
My hand is outstretched toward the damp of the haze

chorus:
       A5           E5
And of course I forgive
     A5            E5
I've seen how you live
       F#5         F#5          E5
Like a phoenix you rise from the ashes
    D5           D5
You pick up the pieces
        A5             E5
And the ghosts in the attic
     F#5   F#5  D5            D5
They never quite leave
       A5           E5
And of course I forgive
       A5          E5
You've seen how I live
         F#5          F#5     E5
I've got darkness and fears to appease
   D5           D5
My voices and analogies
   A5           E5
Ambitions like ribbons
     F#5 F#5      D5                D5
Worn bright on my sleeve

            A5            E5
Strange how we know each other

A5      E5

            A5          E5
Strange how I fit into you
          F#5        F#5          D5           D5
There's a distance erased with the greatest of ease
            A5            E5
Strange how you fit into me
  F#5           F#5        D5          D5
A gentle warmth filling the deepest of needs

         A5            E5
And with each passing day
    A5          E5
The stories we say
        F#5     F#5     E5
Draw us tighter into our addiction
   D5           D5
Confirm our conviction
     A5            E5
That some kind of miracle
F#5    F#5   D5        D5
Passed on our hands
    A5        E5
And how I am sure
     A5       E5
Like never before
      F#5           F#5  E5
Of my reasons for defying reason
   D5          D5
Embracing the seasons
   A5                 E5
We dance through the colors
     F#5          D5           D5
Both followed and led

            A5           E5
Strange how we fit each other

(bridge. I THINK this is largely variations on the A  E theme from the intro with the
D and Dsus2 thrown in.  Unfortunately I'm not 100% on this part)

A5     E5

            A5           E5
Strange how certain the journey
     F#5         F#5
Time unfolds the petals
    D5           D5
For our eyes to see
            A5              E5
Strange how this journey's hurting
   F#5     F#5              D5         D5
In ways we accept as part of fate's decree

      A5            E5
So we just hold on fast
  A5             E5
Acknowledge the past
   F#5       F#5      E5
As lessons exquisitely crafted
    D5         D5
Painstakingly drafted
   A5           E5
To carve us as instruments
 F#5                   D5             D5
That play the music of life
       A5        E5
For we don't realize
    A5            E5
Our faith in the prize
  F#5            F#5    E5
Unless it's been somehow elusive
    D5          D5
How swiftly we choose it
    A5         E5
The sacred simplicity
F#5  F#5    D5         D5
Of you at my side

A5      E5   to  coda
