Verse
G#
Well everything goes back and forth
C# G#
you know it never ends
G#
and some are gonna burn away
C# G#
and some of them pretend
[Chorus]
Fm G#
but once there was a stranger
Fm G#
who stopped me in the street
G# C#
he told me love was in his head
D# G#
and then he ceased to be
[Verse 2]
G#

C# G#
he'd split himself in two
G#
and part of him just ran away
C# G#
the other part won't move
[Chorus]
Fm G#
so take a look inside your head
Fm G#
and tell me what you see
G# C#
is the stranger waiting there
D# G#
singing you to sleep
[Instrumental}

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