[Verse 1]
You could cut the tension with a knife
Everybody thinks that they are right
The neighbor down the street comes out to fight
Because someone broke a window in the night

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The air hangs heavy like a wounded bird
Who can't fly home because he's been too hurt by
Sipping on poison that he thought was only water

[Chorus]
In the strawberry fields
I sing the root and you sing the third above
Suddenly we're like a family
Singing the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
Like a choir praying to the sky
Nothing's sweeter than no distance between you and I
I know the same songs
I love the same songs that you do

[Verse 2]
I wanna be somebody I can trust
Watching as the iron turns to rust
Everybody making such a fuss
But I will not give my seat up on the bus
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause I spent too long being a second thought
Bloody knuckle baby from how hard we'd fought
Just to simply breathe the air beside you

[Chorus]
In the strawberry fields
I sing the root and you sing the third above
Suddenly we're like a family
Singing the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
Like a choir praying to the sky
Nothing's sweeter than no distance between you and I
I know the same songs
I love the same songs that you do

[Bridge]
Same songs, that you do
Same songs, that you do

[Chorus]
In the strawberry fields
I sing the root and you sing the third above
Suddenly we're like a family
Singing the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
Like a choir praying to the sky
Nothing's sweeter than no distance between you and I
I know the same songs
I love the same songs...
Strawberry fields
I sing the root and you sing the third above
Suddenly we're like a family
Singing the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
Like a choir praying to the sky
Nothing's sweeter than no distance between you and I
I know the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
[Outro]
I know the same songs
I love the same songs that you do
