A A9A A A7M A7
Just arrived on the seventen
D6 D7M Dm7 Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Thought I'd see the old gang again
A A9 A C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
But you know how they come and go
D6 F7 E7 D E7
I'm just a stranger in town
A9A A7M A7
Evrywhere, ev'ryone I see
D6 D7M Dm7 Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Seems to wonder who I can be
A A9 A C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7 D9 Fº A
And I swear, no one seems to care about a stranger in town
A7M C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
The weeds have grown 'round the gate
A7M C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet
D6 Bm7(b5) E7
But it looks like I'm too late
A A9 A A9 A A7M A7
Guess I'll leave on the twelveohtwo
D6 D7M Dm7 Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Can't believe that there's no more you
A A9 A A7
Is there nothing for me
C#m7(b5) F#7 D9 D6 E7 E7(13) A
Will I always be a stranger in my own home town
A7M C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I asked around by no one knew you by name
C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
I wonder where you are now
A7M C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I always hoped that things would be just the same
D6 Bm7(b5) E7
And that you'd wait for me somehow
A A9 A A9 A A7M A7
Guess I'll leave on the twelveohtwo
D6 D Dm Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Now that you have found someone new
A A9A A7
Is there nothing for me
C#m7(b5) F#7 D9 D6 E7 C#m7(b5) F#7
Will I always be a stranger in my own home town
A7M C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
The weeds have grown 'round the gate
