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]
Am C
but once there was a stranger
Am 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]
Am C
so take a look inside your head
Am C
and tell me what you see
C F
is the stranger waiting there
G C
singing you to sleep
[Instrumental}
C G Am G
F C Dm 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]
Am C
but once there was a stranger
Am 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
