Hollies - Stranger


CAPO: 3rd Fret


E MajorE       G+G    A augmentedA            E MajorE
Down, down, down town, east side of the river
    G+G  A augmentedA              E MajorE
Bowery boys are living off the street
        G+G    A augmentedA           E MajorE
There stands a stranger all dressed in black
         G+G          A augmentedA
He's looking for someone, he's gonna knife 'em in the back

PRE-CHORUS:
E MajorE        G+G             A augmentedA           E MajorE
Hit man, g-man, con man, watch it man, he might be from the CIA
       G+G        A augmentedA
Sneaky Pete's using his feet, getting off the street 'cause
           E MajorE
He's got something to hide


CHORUS:
G+G              A augmentedA
Danger, there's a stranger
             E MajorE
Intruding in your own backyard
  A augmentedA              C majorC
But stranger, there's a danger
             E MajorE
Don't come across nobody hard


     G+G       A augmentedA         E MajorE
So tough mixing it rough down in Harlem
      G+G     A augmentedA          E MajorE
There's no honky boys for miles around
         G+G    A augmentedA            E MajorE
But there's that stranger all dressed in white
         G+G
He's looking for someone
            A augmentedA
He's gonna show 'em the light, yeah

He's gonna show 'em the light, oh yeah

INSTRUMENTAL: A augmentedA   E MajorE


                A augmentedA
Don't feel safe using the face of fifth avenue
E MajorE           G+G      A augmentedA
Pin stripe suits ain't no disguise, if you're not a man that's true


PRE-CHORUS:
E MajorE        G+G             A augmentedA           E MajorE
Hit man, g-man, con man, watch it man, he might be from the CIA
          G+G          A augmentedA
Sneaky Pete's still using his feet he's getting off the street 'cause
           E MajorE
He's got something to hide


CHORUS:
G+G              A augmentedA
Danger, there's a stranger
             E MajorE
Intruding in your own backyard
  A augmentedA              C majorC
But stranger, there's a danger
             E MajorE
