Strangest Thing - Grant-Lee Phillips

Strangest thing days I feel like dirt

And then I see the diamond dust on everything

Strangest thing something plucks my nerve

And then I hear a hundred chords a shimmering

Strangest thing the way that one guitar

Can move me more than any symphony

Strangest thing when it stars to pour

I feel the sadness and the pain go out of me

I don’t feel sad when Cash wears black I hear the train comin'

Good things down the railroad track ya gotta believe in somethin'

Yeah the strangest thing that assassin' gun

It was a trained to fire away on anyone

Strangest thing the way a stranger wept for him

And how she spilt a tear of love

Yeah the strangest thing the way that hope can hide itself

Behind the walls of anything

I don’t feel sad when Cash wears black I hear the train comin'

Good things down the railroad track ya gotta believe in somethin'

Strangest thing like a potion to unspell

The curse of human suffering

Stangest thing strangest things befall

Even the strongest of us all
