Verse
A
Well everything goes back and forth
D A
you know it never ends
A
and some are gonna burn away
D A
and some of them pretend
[Chorus]
F#m A
but once there was a stranger
F#m A
who stopped me in the street
A D
he told me love was in his head
E A
and then he ceased to be
[Verse 2]
A
yeah when I looked the other way
D A
he'd split himself in two
A
and part of him just ran away
D A
the other part won't move
[Chorus]
F#m A
so take a look inside your head
F#m A
and tell me what you see
A D
is the stranger waiting there
E A
singing you to sleep
[Instrumental}

A
[Verse 3]
A
well things come screaming in your ear
D A
and future turns to past
A
and you're not listening anyway
D A
and nothing ever lasts
[Chorus]
F#m A
but once there was a stranger
F#m A
who stopped me in the street
A D
he told me love was in his head
E A
and then he ceased to be
