 Crossing this country, I’m stalling   I’m coming down

CHORUS:
A        C#m
 I’m a stranger   on the outside
D           E
 When I’m not right  next to you
A      C#m
 I remember   how to get there
D              E
 Will you be there when I’m coming through?


VERSE2:
A        C#m(7)       F#m         D
 Crossing this room to my lovely,   my saving grace
A       C#m(7)       F#m           D
 Promise that time hasn’t lost me   and don’t turn away
C#m        F#m   D    C#m
 I’ve had to be a million faces at once
       C#m
 That’s not me
       A
 That’s not me


[REPEAT CHORUS]


F#m        C#m        E
 Take me back  into your arms   where I belong
                  A	  Bm11  C#m   Dsus2
 There I’m no stranger     to you

A  Bm11  C#m  Dsus2


BRIDGE:

F#m       C#m
 The mirror has broken
        D
 What do you see?
        E          F#m
 A million of you and a million of me
         C#m
 The future’s unspoken
       D
 Who do you see?
         E
 The one on the outside
       A
 That’s not me


[REPEAT CHORUS]

    A        C#m       D      E
 I’m a stranger on the outside when I’m not right next to you
    A        C#m       D      E
 I’m a stranger on the outside when I’m not right next to you
    A          C#m
 I’m a lonely man walking, searching for my home
 D                E
 Been a thousand years and her I am I’m all alone
     A           C#m
 I’m out looking for my lovely one to save the day
  D         E
 Here I come, I’m no stranger today

Outro:
A  C#m  D  E (x3)
A



Just listen to song to get strumming - its pretty easy and consistent
throughout. All of the C#m's can be played with the high E open or 4th fret.
The sevenths are optional during the verses. Good luck and enjoy!!
