Strange Way Words and music by Rick Roberts INTRO -- Bb C Dm9 Bb Bb C Dm9 Bb Didn?t I hear you cry this morning, didn?t I feel you weep Bb C Dm9 Bb Teardrops flowin? down on me, like rivers in my sleep Bb C Dm9 Bb And in my dream of laughter, you came creepin? with your fears Bb C Dm9 Bb Telling me your sorrows, in the tracings of your tears Dm C Bb C That?s a strange way to tell me you love me Dm C Bb C When your sorrow is all I can see Dm C Bb C Bb If you just want to cry to somebody, don?t cry to me, no Bb C Dm9 Bb Don?t cry to me, no Bb C Dm9 Bb Didn?t I hear your voice this morning, didn?t you call my name Bb C Dm9 Bb I heard you whisper softly, but the words were never plain Bb C Dm9 Bb And in your dream of darkness, I came shinin? like the sun Bb C Dm9 Bb Waiting for the laughter, but the laughter never comes CHORUS Bb C Dm9 Bb Didn?t you feel alone this morning, didn?t you need a friend Bb C Dm9 Bb And in your darkest hour, you came runnin? back again CHORUS FLUTE SOLO REFRAIN CHORUS (Note: Ordinarily, only the top four strings are played throughout the song. The 5th and 6th strings, A and E, are not played and left silent. And, in all chord forms throughout the song, the D string is played, but not fretted, leaving the open D string to pedal throughout the song. On the Bb for example, the first finger is placed on the first fret of the high E string, the little finger on the third fret of the B string, and the ring finger on the third fret of the G string. The D is left open. For the C chord that follows, just move the entire chord form up two frets, which should leave the index finger on the third fret. The Dm9 is played like an Am, but the middle finger is lifted to leave an open G.)
