REM - Strange Currencies

intro : C F C F

C F C F
i don’t know why you’re mean to me
C F D G
when i call on the telephone
C F C F
and i don’t know what you mean to me
C F C F
but i want to turn you on , turn you up , figure you out ,
D G
i want to take you on
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine”
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine” all the time

C F C F
the fool might be my middle name
C F D G
but i’d be foolish not to say
C F
i’m going to make whatever it takes ,
C F C F
ring you up , call you down , sign your name , secret love ,
C F D G
make it rhyme , take you in , and make you mine
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine”
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine” all the time , oh
Am G Am G
i tripped and fell . did i fall?
Am F C G
what i want to feel , i want to feel it now
C F C F
you know with love come strange currencies
C F D G
and here is my appeal :
C F C F C F
i need a chance , a second chance , a third chance , a fourth chance ,
C F
a word , a signal , a nod , a little breath
C F D G
just to fool myself , to catch myself , to make it real , real
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine”
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine” all the time , oh
C F Am D G
these words , “you will be mine”
C F Am D
these words , they haunt me , hunt me down , catch in my throat , make me pray ,
G
say , love’s confined , oh
