Stranger    (intro)

 

    G                                                 C

1.    Maybe she was smilin' in the mirror,

D                                                      G

    maybe I was, too, 'cause I was stoned.

                                                     C                           Am

    Singin' every sad song on the juke-box one more time,

D                                                     G

    honey, they was hittin' close to home.

 

                      G                                                          C

2. And I said,       maybe this'll make you think I'm crazy,

D                                                        G

    honey, don't feel lonesome if you do.

                                                                 C                       Am

    But if you wanna make a young man happy one more time,

    D                                                       G

    I'd sure like to spend the night with you. And she said

 

    G                                            C

Stranger shut out the light and lead me,

 D                                                      G

somewhere, shut out the shadows, too.

                                                                      C

And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me,

   D                                       G

stranger, could I believe in you.

 

    G                                                C

3.     Maybe you got all you got together,

D                                                  G

    maybe you keep rollin' like a stone.

                                                            C                     Am

    Maybe some old lonesome song'll take you by surprise,

D                                                      G

    and leave you just a little more alone. Singing  + CHORUS

 

    + Keep singing + CHORUS
