Verse
C#
Well everything goes back and forth
F# C#
you know it never ends
C#
and some are gonna burn away
F# C#
and some of them pretend
[Chorus]
A#m C#
but once there was a stranger
A#m C#
who stopped me in the street
C# F#
he told me love was in his head
G# C#
and then he ceased to be
[Verse 2]
C#
yeah when I looked the other way
F# C#
he'd split himself in two
C#
and part of him just ran away
F# C#
the other part won't move
[Chorus]
A#m C#
so take a look inside your head
A#m C#
and tell me what you see
C# F#
is the stranger waiting there
G# C#
singing you to sleep
[Instrumental}
C# G# A#m G#
F# C# D#m G#
C#
[Verse 3]
C#
well things come screaming in your ear
F# C#
and future turns to past
C#
and you're not listening anyway
F# C#
and nothing ever lasts
[Chorus]
A#m C#
but once there was a stranger
A#m C#
who stopped me in the street
C# F#
he told me love was in his head
G# C#
and then he ceased to be
