Stranger Than The Stranger On The Shore Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Bb]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Acid casualties
and angry young men
[Bb]The litmus test of a guitar and pen
Re[Em]volve around date sheets
lost lonely rooms
And [Bb]this is my home and I will leave soon
For a house with a [C]tower
Where there's visiting [F]hours
And the [Em]day leaves i[E]ts taste on a [Em]spoon[D#][G][C][Gm]
[Bbdim][Gdim][Bbdim][F#][G#m][G#][Bb]
[E][Bb][E]
[Em]The black eye of the camera
bruised by my blush
[Bb]Leaves another chin and another hair cut
The [Em]image in focus the shot aims to kill
And I'm [Bb]cropped at the waist
as I run through the mill
So [C]I'm lost for an encore
The [F]Ko dachrome wants more
Now [E]I'm [Em]snap[D#]ped[G][Em]
[G]wit[C]h my head i[Bbdim]n the sti[F#]ll[G#m][G#]

[Verse 2]
The [Em]con tract's been signed
with a stroke of my blood
I'm [Bb]drowned by the name
that sinks in the mud
[Em]Thrown from emotion to swim
back to the shore
Where the [Bb]sound of a drum
beats time to applause
Now my life's in [C]danger
Of ending up [F]stranger
Than the [E]stranger who
walked on the [Em]shore[D#]

[Verse 3]
[G]Stranger than the stranger
Who walks by my [Em]bed
[C]Shares in my life
Lives although dead
[Bbdim]Stranger than the stranger I am sure
Stranger than the stranger on the [Bb]shore

[Outro 1]
[Bb][E]
