The Seventh Stranger

C            Em       C         
Those words are all remainders, 
    E
echoes growing in the heart of 
twilight
Gm7        Dm         Gm7    Dm
They lay back laughing at naivety 
star
C             Em
Awaken all those whispers

C            E
The dusty shadow of a passing favour
Gm7        Dm           
I wouldn't say that you were 
Gm7        Dm
ruthless or right
Gm7        Dm        C
I couldn't see from so far

F           C
Was I chasing after rainbows?
        E
One thing for sure you never 
answered when I

Am
called

F            D
And I wiped away the water from my 
face
Continues after the ad
  E                 Am
to look through the eyes of a 
stranger

  F         Fm         G
For rumours in the wake of such a 
lonely crowd
D                Am
trading in my shelter for danger

   F      Fm         G
I'm changing my name just as the sun
 goes down
     Dsus   D        Am
in the eyes of a stranger

C                    Em
Can't tell the real from reflection
C                  E
When all these faces look the same 
to me
Gm7       Dm        Gm7      Dm
In ev'ry city such a desolate dream
C              Em
Some days are strange to numbers
C                E
Some say the seventh sounds a little
 bit stranger
Gm7       Dm           Gm7      
A year of Sundays seems to have 
    Dm
drifted right by
Gm7        Dm          C
I could have sworn in one evening

F                C
And I'm not seized in desperation
      E
No steel reproaches on the table 
from be-

Am
fore

F                    D
But I still can feel those splinters
 of ice
  E                 Am
I look through the eyes of a 
stranger

(repeat chorus)

   D           Am
...walking away like a stranger
