The Stranger
Chords:
Intro: [Em]
[C] [Bb] [C] [G]
It's true that all the men you knew were dealers
[D]
Who said they were through with dealing
[Em]
Every time you gave them shelter
[D]
I know that kind of man
[Em]
It's hard to hold the hand of anyone
[D] [Em]
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender
[D] [Em]
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender
[C] [Bb] [C] [G]
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
[D]
You find he did not leave you very much
[Em]
Not even laughter
[D] [Em]
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
[D]
That is so high and wild
[Em]
He'll never need to deal another
[D] [Em]
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[D] [Em]
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[C] [Bb] [C]
And then leaning on your window sill
[G]
He'll say one day you caused his will
[D] [Em]
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
[D]
And then taking from his wallet
[Em]
An old schedule of trains, he'll say
[D] [Em]
I told you when I came I was a stranger
[D] [Em]
I told you when I came I was a stranger
[C] [Bb] [C]
But now another stranger seems
[G]
To want you to ignore his dreams
[D] [Em]
As though they were the burden of some other
[D]
O you've seen that man before
[Em]
His golden arm dispatching cards
[D] [Em]
But now it's rusted from the elbow to the finger
[D] [Em]
And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter
[D] [Em]
Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter
[C] [Bb] [C] [G]
Ah you hate to watch another tired man
[G]
Lay down his hand
[D] [Em]
Like he was giving up the holy game of poker
[D]
And while he talks his dreams to sleep
[Em]
You notice there's a highway
[D] [Em]
That is curling up like smoke above his shoulder
[D] [Em]
It's curling just like smoke above his shoulder
[C] [Bb] [C]
You tell him to come in sit down
[G]
But something makes you turn around
[D] [Em]
The door is open you can't close your shelter
[D]
You try the handle of the road
[Em]
It opens do not be afraid
[D] [Em]
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
[D] [Em]
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
[C] [Bb] [C]
Well, I've been waiting, I was sure
[G] [D]
We'd meet between the trains we're waiting for
[Em]
I think it's time to board another
[D] [Em]
Please understand, I never had a secret chart
[D]
To get me to the heart of this
[Em]
Or any other matter
[D] [Em]
When he talks like this you don't know what he's after
[D] [Em]
When he speaks like this, you don't know what he's after
[C] [Bb] [C]
Let's meet tomorrow if you choose
[G]
Upon the shore, beneath the bridge
[D] [Em]
That they are building on some endless river
[D]
Then he leaves the platform
[Em]
For the sleeping car that's warm
[D] [Em]
You realize, he's only advertising on more shelter
[D] [Em]
And it comes to you, he never was a stranger
[D] [Em]
And you say okay the bridge or someplace later
[C] [Bb] [C] [G]
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
[D]
You find he did not leave you very much
[Em]
Not even laughter
[D] [Em]
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
[D]
That is so high and wild
[Em]
He'll never need to deal another
[D] [Em]
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[D] [Em]
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[C] [Bb] [C]
And leaning on your window sill
[G]
He'll say one day you caused his will
[D] [Em]
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
[D]
And then taking from his wallet
[Em]
An old schedule of trains
[D] [Em]
He'll say, I told you when I came I was a stranger
[D] [Em]
I told you when I came I was a stranger
[D] [Em]
I told you when I came I was a stranger
[D] [Em]
I told you when I came I was a stranger...
