[Verse 1]
A#m C# G#
If I never had to catch that train
A#m C# G#
If nobody would have called my name
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
If you never, would I have ever found out
A#m C# G#
You had questions and you knew names
A#m C# G#
Hidden secrets linked in chains
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
Wrapped in circles locked in squares
[Chorus]
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
7 layers grazed and wearing thin
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 Fm A#m C# G# A#m C# G#
7 layers I've been hiding in
[Verse 2]
A#m C# G#
Fathers' eyes and my fathers' smile
A#m C# G#
I couldn't tell I was just a child
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
Missing memories replaced by doubts
A#m C# G#
Speaking tongues into my ears
A#m C# G#
told herself what she had to hear
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
but did she ever think I'd never find out
[Chorus]
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
7 layers grazed and wearing thin
F#maj7 G# Amno5
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 Fm A#m
7 layers I've been hiding in
[Bridge]
F#maj7 A#m
Spinning round and round in circles
Fm F#maj7
Tie me like a ball of string
F#maj7 A#m
Running around in all your secrets
Fm F#maj7
One by one unraveling
[Chorus]
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 G# A#m G#
7 layers grazed and wearing thin
F#maj7 G# Amno5
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 Fm A#m
7 layers I've been hiding in
F#maj7 A#m Fm F#maj7 A#m Fm F#maj7
Ooohh ooohh Ooohh ooohh
[Chorus]
F#maj7 G# A#m
I was a stranger in my own skin
F#maj7 Fm A#m
7 layers I've been hiding in
