G    D  C
G    D  C

Chorus 1:

              G    D             C
I am the stranger, you can’t see me
              G           D           C
I am the stranger, do you know what I mean


Verse 1:

                 G                  D          C
I never gave the man, I walked here all by the path
               G                 D           C
Jumping to the right, and then I jump to the left
            G                  D      C
On a secret path, the one that nobody knows
              G                  D      C
And I’m moving fast, on the path nobody knows


Verse 2:

             G           D        C
And what I’m feeling, is anyone’s guess
              G         D            C
What is in my head, and what’s in my chest
              G              D           C
I’m not gonna stop, I’m just catching my breath
                  G                     D           C
They’re not gonna stop, please just let me catch my breath


Chorus 2:

              G    D             C
I am the stranger, you can’t see me
              G           D           C
I am the stranger, do you know what I mean


Verse 3:

               G              D          C
That is not my dad, my dad is not a wild man
             G                  D          C
Doesn’t even drink, my dad he’s not a wild man
            G                  D      C
On a secret path, the one that nobody knows
              G                  D      C
And I’m moving fast, on the path nobody knows

I am the stranger

I am the stranger
              G    D  C
I am the stranger
