Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

This song sounds great when played acoustically. There are a lot of little
riffs he plays in the original which I haven't tabbed, but most are
easy enough to figure out.

Intro - Cadd9 G Em7 G

Verse 1

[Cadd9]Strange w[G]ay to s[Em7]tart a revol[G]ution
Strange way to get a better tan
Strange way to hold a power breakfast
Strange way show your business plan
Strange way to test if wood would splinter
Strange way to do performance art
Strange way to say "I'll see you later"
Strange way to leave behind your heart

Chorus 1

[Bm7]Strange dissident of [Em7]meekness

And [Cmaj7]nurse of tangled [Gmaj7]souls

It's [Bm7]so unlike the [Cmaj7]holy

To [Am7]end up [Cadd9]full of [D]holes, it's a strange way

Intro - Cadd9 G Em7 G

Verse 2

[Cadd9]Strange [G]way to h[Em7]ang around for h[G]ours
Strange way to imitate a kite
Strange way to get a view of Auschwitz
Strange way to represent the light
Strange way to watch for stormy weather
Strange way to disprove gravity
Strange way to go about fund-raising
Strange way to sing I'm liberty

Chorus 2
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/martyn_joseph/strange_way_crd_ver_2.html )
[Bm7]Strange dissident of [Em7]meekness

And [Cmaj7]nurse of tangled [Gmaj7]souls

It's [Bm7]so unlike the [Cmaj7]holy

To [Am7]end up [Cadd9]full of h[D]oles, it's a strange way

Intro - Cadd9 G Em7 G

Verse 3

[Cadd9]Strange w[G]ay to t[Em7]est for [G]haemophillia
Strange way to spend a happy hour
Strange way to down a bitter cocktail
Strange way to merchandise your power
Strange way to reassure your mother
That's a strange way to finish your world tour
Strange way to pose for countless paintings
And what a ridiculous way to gather in the poor

Chorus 3

[Bm7]Strange dissident of [Em7]meekness

And [Cmaj7]nurse of tangled [Gmaj7]souls

It's [Bm7]so unlike the [Cmaj7]holy

To [Am7]end up [Cmaj7]full of [D7]holes

Bridge

Yeah this w[Bm7]orld is too much [Em7]with us now

Could we [C]not now just [Gmaj7]elope?

Strange [Bm7]way to hold us [Cmaj7]closer

Strange [Am7]way to [Cmaj7]give us h[D7]ope, it's a strange way

Outro

Strange [Cadd9]way[G][Em7][G]
What a ridiculous[Cadd9] way [G][Em7][G]

Hold on the last Em7, then end on a G, and that's all :)
