[Verse 1]
E5
We stumble down the avenue
G#5
Like fairy dust, and ballyhoo
A5
They promised us forever
E5 B5
But we got less
E5
There's no such thing as promises
G#5
Just secret codes from alphabets
A5
They promised us forever
E5 B5
But we got less
[Pre-Chorus]
A5
These are the best of times
E5
Twisted and borrowed times
C#5 D5 B5
These are the loneliest of times
[Chorus]
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
E5 B5
Ever since Bowie died
C#5 A5
It hasn't been the same
E5 F#5
All the madmen going mental
A5 Am
Grandma's on the fentanyl now
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
[Verse 2]
E5
This is how the world will end
G#5
When superheroes play pretend
A5
They promised us forever
E5 B5
But we got less
E5
It's the return of the blob
G#5
And Jesus gonna quit his job
A5
He promised us forever
E5 B5
But we got less
[Pre-Chorus]
A5
These are the best of times
E5
Twisted and borrowed times
C#5 D5 B5
These are the loneliest of times
[Chorus]
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
E5 B5
Everyone is racist
C#5 A5
And the Uber's running late
E5 F#5
I just lost my sense of humour
A5 Am
Gen-Z killing, baby boomer now
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
[Post-Chorus]
C#5 G#5
Lonely boy
A5 E5
With a heart made of hate
B5
Baby Babylon
A5 B5
And making guns made out of clay
[Break]
E5 G#5 A5 E5 B5
[Bridge]
F#5
Are we in hell?
B5
Or is this just a fantasy
A5
I can't see this ending well
F#5 B5
Now that it's too late
[Chorus]
E5 N.c. A5
Strange days are here to stay
E5 B5
Ever since Bowie died
C#5 A5
It hasn't been the same
E5 F#5
All the madmen going mental
A5 Am
Grandma's on the fentanyl now
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
[Outro]
E5 B5 A5
Strange days are here to stay
E5 B5 A5 E5
Strange days are here to stay
