Bartender, I'd like a Manhattan please
[Verse]
Ebmaj7 C9
Stop me if you've heard this one
Fm7 Bb9
but I feel as though we've met before
Ebmaj7 C9
Perhaps I am mistaken
Fm7 Bb9 G7
But it's just that I remind you of
Cm7 Fm7
Someone you used to care about
Bb9
Oh, but that was long ago
Ebmaj7 C9
Now tell me, do you really think I'd fall for that old line
Fm7 Bb9
I was not born just yesterday
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Db9 Gb7 Bb9
Besides I never talk to strangers anyway
[Verse]
Ebmaj7 C9
Hell, I ain't a bad guy when you get to know me
Fm7 Bb9
I just thought there ain't no harm
Ebmaj7 C9
Hey, yeah, just try minding your own business, bud
Fm7 Bb9 G7
Who asked you to annoy me
Cm7 Db7
With your sad, sad repartee
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Db9 Gb7 Fm7
Besides I never talk to strangers anyway
[Bridge]
Ab Db7
Your life's a dimestore novel

This town is full of guys like you
Ab Db7 Eb
And you're looking for someone to take the place of her
G7 Cm
You must be reading my mail
G
And you're bitter cause he left you
Cm Cm7
That's why you're drinkin' in this bar
Ab C7 Fm7 Bb7
Well, only suckers fall in love with perfect strangers
[Verse]
Ebmaj7 C9
It always takes one to know one stranger
Fm7 Bb9
Maybe we're just wiser now
Ebmaj7 C9
Yeah, and been around that block so many times
Fm7 Bb9 G7
That we don't notice
[close]
Cm Cmmaj7
That we're all just perfect strangers as long as we ignore
Cm7
That we all begin as strangers
Am7
Just before we find
Eb Bsus4 Ebadd9
We really aren't strangers anymore
[Outro]
Db9 Gb9 Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7
Aw, you don't look like such a chump
Aw, hey baby
