Well everything goes back and forth

you know it never ends

and some are gonna burn away
A# F
and some of them pretend

Dm F
but once there was a stranger
Dm F
who stopped me in the street

C F
and then he ceased to be
[Verse 2]
F
yeah when I looked the other way
A# F
he'd split himself in two

and part of him just ran away
A# F
the other part won't move
[Chorus]
Dm F
so take a look inside your head
Dm F
and tell me what you see
F A#
is the stranger waiting there
C F
singing you to sleep
[Instrumental}

[Verse 3]

well things come screaming in your ear
A# F
and future turns to past

A# F
and nothing ever lasts
[Chorus]
Dm F
but once there was a stranger
Dm F
who stopped me in the street
F A#
he told me love was in his head
C F
and then he ceased to be
