Verse 1:
 CGDG
 Please mister can you help me try to find my baby's house -
 CGDG
 It's 3 in the morning and it's pourin' rain.
 CGDG
 I can't find the house and I forgot the number,
 CGDG
 But I gotta give her these roses to relieve her pain

Pre-Chorus 1:
 CDGCGDG
 Don't laugh, just tell me you've been there before
 CGDG
 So we fight, but we fight every evening,
 CGDG
And I tell ya every morning I just love her more

Chorus 1:
 CGDGCGDG
And life goes on, filled with disasters and friction  
 CGDEm
And life can be strange
 CDG
But love can be stranger than fiction
 CDG
Only love can be stranger than fiction

Verse 2:
 CGDG
 Excuse me operator, tell me what time it is -
 CGDG
 Me and my lover been in bed all day
 CGDG
 I think I strained a muscle I didn't know I had
 CGDG
 Mmm, tell me what day is it anyway?

Pre-Chorus 2:
 CDGCGDG
 Don't laugh, just tell me you hear what I'm saying
 CGDEm
 I love her so much I don't even know what planet I'm on
 CGDG
 Love her so much, wish she'd just go away

Chorus 2:
 CGDGAmGDG
And life goes on, filled with bizarre contradictions  
 CGDG
And life can be strange
 CDG
But love can be stranger than fiction
 CDG
Only love can be stranger than fiction

Bridge:
 Cmaj7DG
I know that sometimes love goes
 Dm7Em7
but sometimes it comes back to get ya
 CDGAm
 And when love grows, it grows like a flower
it grows like a tumor
 Am7/GDG
 Love shows that god has a sense of humor  

Pre-Chorus bridge:
 CGDGCGDG

Chorus 3:
 CGDGCGDG
Ya know that life goes on, ever immune to prediction 
 CGDEm
And life can be strange
 CDG
But love can be stranger than fiction
 CDG
Only love can be stranger than fiction
