Verse
Fm D# D#sus Fm
C# F# C# G#
It's true that all the men you knew were dealers
G#sus G# D#
Who said they were through with dealing
Fm
Every time you gave them shelter
D#
I know that kind of man
Fm
It's hard to hold the hand of anyone
D# Fm
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender,
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender.
C# F# C# G#
And sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
G#sus G# D#
You find he did not leave you very much
Fm
Not even laughter
D# Fm
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
D#
That is so high and wild
Fm
He'll never need to deal another
D# Fm
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
C# F# C#
And then leaning on your window sill
G# G#sus G#
He'll say one day you caused his will
D# Fm
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
D#
And taking from his wallet
Fm
An old schedule of trains, he'll say
D# Fm
I told you when I came I was a stranger
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
I told you when I came I was a stranger
C# F# C#
But now another stranger seems
G# G#sus G#
To want you to ignore his dreams
D# Fm
As though they were the burden of some other
D#
O you've seen that man before
Fm
His golden arm dispatching cards
D# Fm
But now it's rusted from the elbows to the finger
D# Fm
And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter.
C# F# C# G#
I hate to watch another tired man
G#sus G#
Lay down his hand
D# F#n
Like he was giving up the holy game of poker
D#
And while he talks his dreams to sleep
Fm
You notice there's a highway
D# Fm
That is curling up like smoke above his shoulder.
D# Fm
It is curling just like smoke above his shoulder.
C# F# C#
You tell him to come in sit down
G# G#sus G# D#
But something makes you turn around
D# Fm
The door is open you can't close your shelter
D#
You try the handle of the road
Fm
It opens do not be afraid
D# Fm
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
It's you my love, you who are the stranger.
C# F# C#
Well, I've been waiting, I was sure
G# G#sus G#
We'd meet between the trains we're waiting for
D# Fm
I think it's time to board another
D# Fm
Please understand, I never had a secret chart
D#
To get me to the heart of this
Fm
Or any other matter
D#
When he talks like this
Fm
You don't know what he's after
D#
When he speaks like this,
Fm D# D#sus Fm
You don't care what he's after.
C# F# C#
Let's meet tomorrow if you choose
G# G#sus G#
Upon the shore, beneath the bridge
D# Fm
that they are building on some endless river
D#
Then he leaves the platform
Fm
For the sleeping car that's warm
D# Fm
You realize, he's only advertising one more shelter
D# Fm
And it comes to you, he never was a stranger
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
And you say ok the bridge or someplace later.
C# F# C# G#
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
G#sus G# D#
You find he did not leave you very much
Fm
Not even laughter
D# Fm
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
D#
That is so high and wild
Fm
He'll never need to deal another
D# Fm
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
D# Fm D# D#sus Fm
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
